Key Quotes: “My writer, Rhadika [Anand], who’s back in India, pitched this idea in one line to me, and then my wife, who’s the producer, got together with her and they started creating scenarios inspired by their own lives and their own experiences and all their single friends’ lives and experiences. My job was to kind of stay out of it at the writing stage, because it’s hard for me as a man to interfere in this process… I thought I knew about women, but I then made this film and I realized a lot more.” – Karan Boolani ­
