From The Playback Singer website:
THE PLAYBACK SINGER tells the story of an aimless, would-be, jungle-gym architect who finds his existence disrupted – and his marriage upended – when his prickly, Indian, B-movie playback singer father-in-law comes to visit and overstays his welcome. An original feature script written by director Suju Vijayan, THE PLAYBACK SINGER is a family drama spiked with comedy, which gets to the heart of relationships and of the challenges of finding our place in this world.
