Short description

Yeh Ballet follows two teenage boys from Mumbai, Asif and Nishu, whose lives change when an eccentric ballet teacher, Saul Aaron, recognizes their talent. Both come from poor families, and their pursuit of classical dance brings them up against prejudice and disapproval from those around them, including their own fathers. The film's central conflict lies in the tension between the boys' ambitions and the expectations placed on them by family and community.

The film was directed and written by Sooni Taraporevala and produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur under Roy Kapur Films. It stars Achintya Bose as Asif and Manish Chauhan as Nishu, with Julian Sands as Saul Aaron and Danish Husain, Vijay Maurya and Heeba Shah in supporting roles. The credited cast runs to 27 names. Running 117 minutes, it is an Indian drama.

Audiences received the film warmly: it holds a rating of 7.5 out of 10 on IMDb from around 1,600 votes, and 7.6 out of 10 on TMDB, though from a much smaller base of 23 votes. The two scores are close, suggesting a consistent response across both platforms.
