#Maska on @netflix is an unconventional story which touches the right cords in unexpected ways. Seeing @mkoirala back on screen is always a delight, @jaavedjaaferi shines in any role as always and we see a new rising star in @ShirleySetia. This one is definitely worth your time.

A Netflix original about a Parsi family running an Irani Cafe.
A wonderful trip down memory lane. Evokes the same warm buttery feeling of Chai-Bun Maska.
Must watch :) @NetflixIndia #Maska@ShirleySetia @jaavedjaaferi @pritkamani @mkoirala pic.twitter.com/GWCzmFE0Jg
The film's trailer starts with Javed Jaffrey's voice-over, who plays Rumi's dead father. Rumi's mother Diana hopes that their son also grows up to become a maskawala, but he announces that he wishes to become an actor. Born into the legacy of the oldest Irani Cafe in Mumbai, he has a difficult choice to make. He can either fulfil his dream of becoming an actor by selling the cafe or carry the lineage of the Rustom Cafe and give up on becoming an actor.
