Ferrari KiSawaari

16th September17:00 NZT on Star Plus

A little boy Kayo thinks of nothing but cricket. His father, Rusy, thinks of nothing but his

little boy. To fulfill his son's dream of playing at Lord's cricket ground, the honest and

upright Rusy performs the first small act of dishonesty in his life: he borrows a

gleaming red Ferrari. Just for one hour. The only problem is he doesn't inform its

legendary owner. A wild, breathless, bumpy ride begins, a ride that leads to a

menagerie of amazing characters: a wedding planner who'll stop at nothing, a

Laurel-and-Hardyesque pair of loyal attendants, a greedy politician and his reckless

son, a mechanic who specializes in stolen cars. As the Ferrari zooms through this

chaotic world of street-thugs and mass-weddings, another saga unfolds – a grumpy

old man and his secret wounds, and an epic rivalry that goes back thirty-eight years.

A naive Rusy must dodge bullets and bouncers for one unforgettable night, and play

the role of a perfect father. Ferrari Ki Sawaari is a story of small guys and their big

dreams, and how one night changes their lives forever

Taking Lives (2004). The film was noted for a deft portrayal of Kolkata and use of a

significant number of crew and cast members from the city.
