SIXTH HAPPINESS (1997)

Cast

Plot

Brit Kotwal was born with brittle bone disease in a Parsee community in Bombay, and as he grows into a man, helped and hindered by his eccentric and dysfunctional family, Brit becomes keen to the point of obsession to facilitate his sexual awakening. Sixth Happiness is based on Firdaus Kanga's (who also stars) acclaimed autobiography and it's a witty, acerbic, touching and thoughtful portrayal of a remarkable human, beautifully shot and unsentimentally visualised.
