I got to watch this movie as part of a special screening yesterday! Yes am a fan of Jhumpa L's writing too....but feel screen adaptation of novels in Indian Cinema seem yet to get the right mix. I felt the movie needed some sizable editing. All lead characters did their jobs well....but then I really felt the movie was highly arty, not that am against art movies .
Yes there is an audience for the movie, NRIs and all Bengali's....they can relate to it instantly and the rest of us, it is a bit of a disconnect.
It is worth if you are also looking for a movie which makes more sense other than the usual masala stuff! For all other urban yuppi stuff perhaps delhi heights is a better bet.
