Hi Nanna

In bustling Mumbai, a young girl navigates a world that swirls with color, sound, and the ever‑present hum of the city’s rhythm. Mahi, a six‑year‑old with cystic fibrosis, lives in a modest apartment with her devoted father, her grandfather, and their loyal dog. The film paints their daily life with a tender realism, balancing the challenges of illness with moments of play, laughter, and quiet wonder. Viraj, a successful fashion photographer, has built his world around caring for his daughter, his love expressed through patience, art, and a protective devotion that feels both intimate and expansive.

Pluto serves as more than a pet; he is a silent confidant who shares Mahi’s curiosity and adventurous spirit. When questions about the mother who never appears in their home linger in Mahi’s mind, her yearning for answers becomes a gentle undercurrent that drives her imagination. The city’s streets, markets, and fleeting glimpses of strangers become a canvas for her to explore, hinting at a larger story that waits just beyond the familiar walls.

A chance encounter leads Mahi and Pluto to cross paths with Yashna, a kind‑hearted woman whose presence introduces a new layer of warmth and mystery. Their meeting feels serendipitous, offering Mahi a glimpse of the missing pieces of her family’s puzzle. The tone remains hopeful, underscored by the quiet strength of a child who refuses to be defined solely by her condition, and the deep, unspoken bonds that tie a single parent and child together.

Through its gentle humor, vivid cityscape, and an undercurrent of longing, the film invites viewers to contemplate the enduring power of love, sacrifice, and the invisible threads that connect us all. It remains an intimate portrait of resilience, where every smile, whispered question, and fleeting connection hints at deeper revelations waiting to unfold.
