Stanley ka Dabba
Stanley is a normal schoolboy with one problem. He does not carry tiffin. He is favourite among the other kids, who eagerly share their tiffins with him. However, it means less food for their Hindi teacher Babubhai Verma who forces children to share tiffins. When Babubhai discovers Stanley's secret, he corners him and threatens him to be thrown out of the school if he doesn't bring tiffin. While other kids praise their mother's food, Stanley, who has no mother, is left with the void of not having a proper family. Stanley stays with his uncle and works in a hotel as child labour. The film portrays more delicate elements of child psychology when Stanley invents his mother taking inspiration from Mary. This utterly moving film is honest and becomes a must-watch Indian movie of all times for kids.
