Critical reception
The New York Times, "It’s the rare film set in India that speaks the melancholy language of the international art house."[1]
/Film, "Bombay Summer feels a little without consequence, an exercise in fetishizing the city or in filling up the gaps between the classes with startling gloss."[2]
The Village Voice, "Bombay Summer’s keen sense of nostalgia for a fleeting present is the real heartbreaker."[3]
