#The lunchbox full movie series#
This begins a series of lunchbox notes between Saajan and Ila, and the mere comfort of communicating with a stranger anonymously soon evolves into an unexpected friendship.
Curious about the lack of reaction from her husband, Ila puts a little note in the following day’s lunchbox, in the hopes of getting to the bottom of the mystery.
She prepares a special lunchbox to be delivered to him at work, but, unbeknownst to her, it is mistakenly delivered to another office worker, Saajan, a lonely man on the verge of retirement. She desperately hopes that this new recipe will finally arouse some kind of reaction from her neglectful husband. Middle class housewife Ila is trying once again to add some spice to her marriage, this time through her cooking.
