''Vartak Nagar'' is a 2015 Hindi language drama film directed by first-time director Atul Taishete. ==Concept== The primary layer is a fun filled nostalgic trip of the 80’s, the glorious school days, the eccentric teachers, and the school pranks. The innocence of that age is captured through the carefree lives of Gajya, Satya, Raju and Savio.They live in Vartak Nagar which is located in Mumbai and go to an English medium school. The fathers of Raju and Satya work in Sitaram mills. The second layer, which follows the animosity between the don BalaChavan and union leader Kunwar Singh, is a look at the gangster era in the 80s in the city of Mumbai. Bala Chavan is the ferocious gangster working for the mill ownerandKunwar Singhis an honest mill union leader who fights for the rights of the workers. Voilent clashes between Bala Chavan and Kunwar Singh lead to an event which changes the lives of the four children protagonists.The boys suddenly find themselves in adult like situations and evolve as true and lifelong friends in the process. The Bombay mill strike of 1982 is the driver for the story of Vartak Nagar. The catalyst used to make these two worlds collide is the historical Textile mill strike of Mumbai, considered the one landmark event, which transformed Mumbai from an Industrial town to a commercial city. The film is an entertaining roller coaster ride and promises to help us relive our carefree childhood days. The film also takes a hard look at how a seemingly small event snowballed into the longest running strike in history eventually converting the textile mills into swanky malls in the city of Mumbai two decades later. Vartak Nagar is a funny and violent "Coming of age period film" about the childhood we share, the trust we take for granted, the promises we break and evolve as true friends in the process.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=‘Vartak Nagar’ tells the story of four boys and their loss of innocence )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vartak Nagar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
