Every night we go home and switch on the news channel, to find headlines full of violence, atrocities and we wonder how this world keeps moving in spite of so much of multi layered bias which is actually the root cause of all this. Yeh Mera India is an attempt to explore the real stories behind these headlines. These stories deal with racial bias, communal bias, caste bias, class bias, gender bias, lingual bias and immigrant bias that plaque the today’s society and the outcome is startling. It is the human ability to redeem themselves at any given moment which reveals that behind every bad news there is good news.
It is a story of one day in the life of 12 people from different strata of Mumbai city which is a melting pot of cultures. They all start the day with a goal in mind but surprisingly end up achieving exactly the opposite, giving it a feel of Greek tragedy of futile human efforts in front of the inevitable destiny. However in Yeh Mera India it is more of a reversal of fortune from bad to good than from good to bad.
Vir is a bachelor from a small town working as a sous-chef in a five-star
hotel in Mumbai. A handsome, charming, macho idiot who flirts with, yearns for
and lusts after any woman who is friendly but seems unattainable.

Too many girls… spoil the cook
Vir is a bachelor from a small town working as a sous-chef in a five-star
hotel in Mumbai. A handsome, charming, macho idiot who flirts with, yearns for
and lusts after any woman who is friendly but seems unattainable.
From
his man-hating maid, whom he ogles as she wipes his floor, to the man-eating
call center owner who could wipe the floor with him…from the too-tall model to
the too-young pretty pest down the corridor…from the
Bengali-Beauty-with-Brains-and-Books to the born-flirt next door – Vir is
suckered by them all. Ego, Confusion, Commitment…it’s so difficult to stop
flattering and lying – to himself! The sometimes smart and sometimes silly
observations of his all-male gang of cooks at the hotel kitchen is of little
help until… Vir, an especially overconfident (and thus entertaining) specimen
of the male species, is forced to grow up.

The Land That Hold Them Together… Might Tear Them Apart…
This sweeping, melodramatic saga of a powerful father, and his two sons, presents an honest view of the rugged life and goals of a simple farming family against the lush green agricultural lands of modern day Punjab.
It begins with a Kisaan, Dayal Singh (Jackie Shroff), a widower who’s immersed in the legacy of his ancestral lands as he raises two very different sons; Aman, (Arbaaz Khan) is formally schooled to become a city based lawyer while Jigar (Sohail Khan) through lack of funds and inclination towards anything other than farming is kept by his father’s side.
When Sohan Seth (Dalip Tahil), a shrewd businessman, convinces many beleaguered farmers to sell their lands for his commercial interests some by using the violent tactics of the village’s heavy hand, Nirmal (Romeo) it shatters the harmony of village life, and Dayal’s family is jeopardized. Dayal Singh and his sons are locked into a battle of right; each is focused on their path to success.
The brother’s are pitted against each other with a different outlook of land and its value as the crisis in the village unfolds. The ground at their feet, is it Motherland or simply Property? It spin tails them down a direction they can never return from, leading to a shocking turn of events as their women Priya (Dia Mirza) and Titli (Nauheed Cyrusi) add to the drama and conflict. In the struggle of land and brotherhood, tragedy befalls forcing each man to re-examine his convictions.
Is blood thicker than water?
Will loyalty and honor outlast stubbornness and pride?
Because land, land will outlast them all.
Kisaan, the story of a farmer.

Omar, a taxi driver in New York, is wrongfully arrested for terrorism. The United States National Security Agency wants to send him to Samir, who was a friend in his university days and is now a leader of a secret terrorist group. Omar accepts the mission, only to prove Samir’s innocence.
Once a city full of friendship and love, New York no longer interested in the dreams of the Arabs and Indians after 9/11. Without typical Bollywood style music and dance, this serious drama follows the ragged life of an Indian kept down by his own skin color and religion with nostalgic retrospect on life in New York City.
