cinema has spurred a group of cinema enthusiasts to make their own
films-quirky, low budget, socially aware and notoriously funny spoofs of
Bollywood films. Their ambition has grown and now they are ready to
take on Hollywood and Superman. We follow them on this journey. At times
funny, tragic, contemplative. Always warm and engaging. And as the film
begins to take shape, through schemes and approaches that are sublimely
ingenious, simply bizarre and purely hysterical, we also slowly
discover Malegaon itself. A microcosm that embodies and reflects the
complexities of modern small town India. Where the modern and the
traditional rub shoulders…
