There are no good people here. And perhaps no truly evil ones. A small-time thief and hustler and his lover and pimp, who is a rising star in Delhi's music scene. A lost American and acolyte of a so-called guru. A young woman who hopes to save herself by becoming a boss in one of India's new mafias. And everyone floating in a world of shades of grey.

In a devastating portrait, Ranbir Sidhu's Night in Delhi invites us into a city and its underworld where at any moment the ground might collapse beneath you.
