The ongoing Cine lit fest at the India Habitat Centre is a collection of interesting films adapted from successful literature. It is being held in collaboration with various embassies and film bodies. A must attend

You just gathered the courage and watched a film about a con man out to rob a train (yawn). The only thing you could remember from the storyline is that his lady love Sheila is proud of her jawani.



Suddenly, you get reminded that it vaguely resembles Vittorio De Sica's After the Fox, though in a grotesque and spoofy way. Overcome by remorse you decide to jump off the Qutab Minar. Hang on and don't lose heart.u00a0 Try this Cine fest and watch cinematic adaptations of successful novels which will help reinstall your faith in cinema. (And if it doesn't, you might as well jump off the minar).
