Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year

I saw this film on my way back from Paris to New Delhi.
It's a slow paced film - not meant to be a big Bollywood blockbuster. It shows the life of a young under achiever - young sardar played by Ranbir Kapoor. I must say that he looked quite handsome as a sardar and did a stellar job in the role.
It shows him struggling to learn the work of a salesman. Eventually however, his entreprenuerial side shows up and he branches out, quite shrewdly.
What struck me about this film was the main boss - and how he deals with the conflict.
I've noticed that very rarely do people let you be in this world. The film was a refreshing change from that.
How to sell someone a pencil without an eraser?
Hmmm..... Will reboot your mobile and it won't cost you a thing. Well done, Rocket Singh!
