Stutee Ghosh

reference Stutee Ghosh pops up in “Dilli Dark” (2023), and man, this movie’s got a wild energy. It’s set right in the middle of Delhi—yeah, that messy, buzzing, always-hustling city. The story follows Michael, a guy who isn’t your typical hero. He’s Nigerian, living in Delhi, and he’s basically juggling two lives. On one hand, he’s trying to fit into this super judgmental, sometimes straight-up bizarre city. On the other, he’s hustling to get by, dealing with racism, double standards, and all the weird stuff that comes with being an outsider. The film doesn’t hold back. It jumps right into the chaos—Michael’s university life, his late-night gigs, and the shady people he meets. Delhi becomes this character of its own: loud, unforgiving, and oddly charming. You get a real sense of how tough it is for anyone who doesn’t fit the mold, especially someone like Michael. The humor’s sharp, but the movie doesn’t shy away from the ugly stuff—corruption, casual racism, cops who love their bribes. Still, it’s not all doom and gloom. There’s this pulse of hope and defiance running through the whole thing. Michael’s got dreams, crazy as they seem, and he’s not about to let a city—or its people—crush him. “Dilli Dark” throws all the messiness of urban life right at you, but it’s honest, raw, and weirdly funny. It sticks with you, probably because it feels so real.
