Don't think for one second! that you are travelling with two eccentric siblings, in a modern day locomotive across a vast barren Indian countryside to view the hills.Why? is it because I have associated the name "Darjeeling" with a limitation.Maybe, cause its not your fault that a train that leaves from Jodhpur has been given this sort of a name.However, that skin boiling, flesh melting screeching loo does give you an idea of what a lowland might be.Some philosophers will give it a fresh meaning on the context, while others will serve it into their livelihoods to function properly from the outset.That's right folks you are, "three middle-aged brothers" with a portable life, hunting for spiritual ecstasy.To complex the situation, lets add a tad Caucasian color to the palette of tanned Asians and sum a wee relaxing ecstasy while we can.Well welcome then, to the luxurious first class from Indian railways.Before we reach your journey's end, we will encompass and elaborate how you managed to get here in the first place.For that we need to go through the list of names under your surname "Whitman's".I briefed it in bold and dipped it in a singular frame because each of you are one and only.Firstly Jack, you are a loner after what happened with you at the, " Hotel Chevalier" in Paris, you are bound to raise your hand, when it comes to relishing on the yin side of life.Secondly, Peter relief yourself of all the depressions and head hazards while you can, cause you have an emotional side that is waiting to get wandered and secrecy unraveled.Thirdly and lastly Francis being the eldest you need to concoct a new thread that once entangled you trios and made your characters into abolished individuals.Even if it is blowing a Peacock feather with the wind towards the right direction from the cliffs, feeding luggage's to the streams and hurling differences at each other.The bottom line is you still love your cornflakes, fruit juices and other ameliorate's for breakfast, you still raise your hand to taste a delicacy and justify this statement, "What's wrong with opposing each other, if we can feel you with love".


This is what director Wes Anderson tells us and also not by reputation but, by familiarity showcases how three rugged and strange blokes could turn their worlds around for the betterment.At his liberty to adopt Indian culture into the celluloid.He promises and visualizes a nurturing film.Built in the near perfect rhythm, The Darjeeling limited is a bold black comedy, flickering and swaying away from its genre few times, in its casualness and unusual storytelling or depiction of screenplay from a people point of view.Encircling the landscape of lowish India, the story focuses on the broken but fixable lives of three brothers.They try to conduct self-therapies by performing an overhaul of themselves.While they are aware of the tricky transformation they are about to obtain, they are not sure if it could lead to a formation of a "bridge bondage" or a collapse.


Taking a random name from the heart of Bengal tourism.Wes focuses at how from sheer characterization, a beautiful place can be made.Where one's with low lifestyles could gain a height not by dwelling from muddy fields to chilly peaks.Instead give it a thought and spring it up to make realistic theories of life.


With a traumatic outlook and a gouged inner vessel, Francis Whitman(Owen Wilson) comes into the fray inside a classic Hollywood inspired bogie.Is it really worth it to alienate him? Off course not! being a brazen as well as estranged companion, Jack Whitman( Jason Schwartzman) pleases the audiences with his dazzling humor and fuming romance.They are not to be kept idle, as they are joined by the third brother Peter Whitman(Adrian Broody) entering as a man almost * missing his train*, that to followed by a meager cameo in the form of "guess who?".He adds all the bit more emotion to the anecdote displayed on the big screen.Swirling through a dramatic laughter, the story starts taking an emergency break when lives go at stake.The major cast is supported by the nerdy stewardess  Rita(Amara Karan) and Irrfan Khan as "the" child's father.The film changes its taste prior to the indulgence of the local's.It also resonates association of the main characters in their past life involving their parents.


If you had an experience similar to their's.Then I am sure that gulping a glass of sweet lime did not cool the heat.Pulsating through the ever enigmatic and legendary music of late great writer and director of Indian filmography, Satyajit Ray's works.


This Bengal lancer will leave you behind if not caught at the nick of time.Gape at it or gather the chips while looking at this, let your eyes shine.
