Imagine your friendly neighbourhood cablewallah, self-confessedly driven by pluck to survive the big bad city; never needed college education for a living. Runs a neat little bandwidth business too, with a band of dedicated local boys.
Now imagine the cablewallah is actually cablewaali. The name is Sonali, which explains the title of the film, and she is a girl from the ghetto doing brisk business catering to a thriving mohalla somewhere in Mumbai.
Sonali Cable draws its USP wholly from the fact that it does a gender reversal on a calling we normally associate with men. The Cable Girl as a character would seem like a brainwave. It twists the standard David-versus-Goliath formula which the scripts banks on, and which Bollywood has been hawking forever.
