Dan (Varun Dhawan) is living the life of any carefree 21 year old, revolving around a bunch of friends and fellow hotel interns who feed off each other's everyday moments, their ups and downs. Shiuli (Banita Sandhu) is one such intern at the same hotel, who at times is at a receiving end of Dan's audaciousness. Life goes on until a sudden turn of events smashes Dan and Shiuli's lives together, into a bond that's unlike any 21 year olds. The emotional connection between them goes through a metamorphoses that brings out a form of love that's unlike any other eventually leading to an internal awakening. October is not a Love Story, but rather a story about love.

This film was as exciting as getting my blood drawn from a nurse for visa renewal purposes.

October is not bound by Indian sensibility alone; it is a humane story that will possibly enjoy a much wider appeal across international audiences.

Calling October only a love story will be injustice to its resilient tone. It's a battle, both inter-personal and intra-personal. It's not about logic or wise decisions, it's about how far can you go for the things you believe in.

October is the most ambitious collaboration yet between director Shoojit Sircar and screenwriter Juhi Chaturvedi.

Shoojit Sircar has exceeded himself and has given us a slow burner that doesn't hold its punches, doesn't give us false promises and yet teaches us that life can yet be beautiful even in the most adverse circumstances.

Sircar and Chaturvedi bring a meditative quality to the story, and it is this quality that makes October stand out.

Matters are steadied, just, by Sircar's quiet sensitivity towards tiny signs of life.
