Critically acclaimed film 'The Lunchbox' marks its 2nd anniversary. The film created a stir internationally and is unquestionably one of the most successful Indian exports. 

While we celebrate the film, we take a look back at 5 things which made this film heart-touching.

1. Irrfan Khan as the subtle romantic hero: We have seen him giving stellar performances over the years but no one imagined Irrfan essaying the role of an endearing character of Saajan

2. Story simplicity: The story is simple and yet is woven together by minuscule detailing in the script. The human connect in the story and the relationships are beautifully established be it of neighbours,friends, spouses or parents.

3. Letters: The charm of letters yet makes our hearts melt. A concept which is increasingly alienating us and so when we see the exchange of letters between Irrfan and Nimrat, it just makes you smile.

4. Music: The makers have stayed away from adding songs just to make the film commercial and yet the one song which adds to the story is the background song of the 90's song Saajan which adds to the narrative beautifully. 

5. Production: The production of the film has been closely looked into which transports you in their world effortlessly.
