Delhi, it seems is ready to Savour this Italian treat. "I am a complete movie buff and I have always been open for different kinds of cinema so I would love to watch the film. I have read the novel this movie is based on. It's an overtly political film with much drama but unlike our mainstream Bollywood movies where there is only drama. It would be great to seeu00a0 Bollywood making films like these.
