Bobby is the story of Raj, the poor little rich boy who has everything but the love and attention he craves, and Bobby, the granddaughter of his old maid in whom he finds love and support. Interwoven with this innocent love story are the very real issues of modern India’s social and class inequalities as the film explores the theme of relationships versus wealth. The two sets of parents, with their social and financial differences, make it impossible for the young lovers to be together. What follows is a touching tale of how the pair fights society and their parents, proving that love does conquer all and that a big bank balance does not automatically provide respectability.
