    Roshan accompanies his grandmother to Delhi to help care for her as her health declines. The questions ask about Roshan's impressions of Delhi and how they change, the characters of Rama, Jalebi and Bittu, religious rituals in Delhi that outsiders may not understand, the role of Ram Leela in the film, how the community lived together before tensions arose, examples of the misuse of power and divisions that occurred, and the significance of a Sufi fakir character and how a figure like Shani baba can divide people "wrong number" style. It also asks where Roshan ultimately ends up at the film's end.
