Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai

Mumbai-pune-mumbai, as the name suggests is a story about people from these two cities.
Swapnil is a Pune bred lad, while Mukta Barve is from the always fast moving, no time to breathe city Mumbai.
Mukta comes to Pune to meet her prospective husband, but her ideas about people in Pune are not so welcoming for any Puneite. While looking for directions to her destination she accidentally bumps into Swapnil. Swapnil now embarks on a mission to get her to her destination. He takes her to the guy's place, but unfortunately the house is locked. Swapnil then is on a new mission, to prove that he is a gentleman and that he cannot now leave a lady, in a new city alone. So he shows her around Pune. Tulshibaug, sarasbaug, Sinhagad. During the day they share their life stories as acquaintances. They also share their ideals, beliefs.
When the time of departure arrives, Mukta has a freer mind, as she has come over her trials, hard feelings for guys in general because of her past spoilt relationship. She is now eager to meet the guy she had originally come to meet and then, the climax. A nice twist, though trivial.
The lead actors, Swapnil and Mukta as usual have acted rather naturally. The direction and the story telling are nice.
Its a nice one time watch!
