Film : Delhi - Mumbai - Delhi
Dir : Saba Dewan; 63 min; Punjabi, Hindi with Eng subtitles; 2006
Synopsis : It is an intimate portrait of Riya, a young woman who earns a living as a dancer in the bars of Mumbai. Riya travels by train from her native city of Delhi to Mumbai, together with many other uneducated girls looking for a better future for themselves and their families. Things are not easy. Even though she is earning a living and has plenty of admirers who give her presents, her line of work does not do much for her reputation. Her family is also getting harassed by the police. Moreover, her boss forces her to work harder and harder to bring in more tips - money that she cannot even keep for herself. When Riya eventually finds a husband, she says she is happy, but the question remains as to whether she will be able to deal with being a housewife.

I just watched and really liked "When Four Friends Meet", and I really _need_ to see the decade-later sequel! Is there a place to watch or buy online "Till We Meet Again"?
