Gali Gali Chor Hai

Gali Gali Chor Hai

Bharat, an 'Aam Aadmi' (transl. common man), is a part-time 'Hanuman' at the local 'Ramleela', but a full-time cashier at the bank. He resides in the heart of Bhopal, with Nisha, a schoolteacher, and his loving and caring, but doubting wife, who is concerned more about her husband's promotion from cashier to manager than his flying tricks onstage. Bharat's father, Shiv Narayan, an old-timer who values freedom and hopes to see his country corruption-free someday, completes the small and happy family. However, there's also an uninvited houseguest in Bharat's household: Amita, a young, beautiful girl who works at a call centre and often likes to hitch a ride with Bharat on his scooter when he is not busy dropping his wife to school. Contrary to his wife's wishes, Bharat's sole ambition in life is to graduate from his role as 'Hanuman' to 'Lord Ram' someday. However, that puts him at loggerheads with Sattu Tripathi, the younger brother of the local MLA and a bad actor playing 'Lord Ram', who is perpetually annoyed at being upstaged by 'Hanuman'. His older brother, MLA Manku, also has his share of problems with Bharat, who refuses to let out an extra room to him for his re-election campaign.
