Hyderabad Blues

Hindi · 1998 · 85 min · drama

Directed by Nagesh Kukunoor

After twelve years living in the United States, Varun returns to Hyderabad and finds himself out of step with the country he grew up in. Played by writer-director Nagesh Kukunoor in his acting debut, Varun navigates the gap between American-style dating and Indian expectations around arranged marriage while pursuing a romance with a local doctor. Shot mainly in English with some Telugu and Hindi, the film is considered an early landmark of Indian independent cinema.
