In The Darjeeling Limited three estranged brothers agree to meet and travel across India a year after their fathers death on a soul-searching train journey.


An artwork of Satyajit Ray was created for the film ‘The Darjeeling Limited’ by Aradhana Seth who was the art director/set decorator. She worked with a truck painter to create this art work for the walls of the train compartment of The Bengal Lancer as an ode to Ray.
