Happy Journey tells the story of one such individual Niranjan (Atul Kulkarni) who has been working since a very young age in Dubai. This has alienated him from his family including his younger sister Janaki (Priya Bapat) , although she remembers him fondly and misses his presence. Often putting his family first and not being able to fulfil his personal desires has also made Niranjan cynical and bitter. Several years later, Niranjan and Janaki meet under some unusual circumstances giving them a chance to rediscover their relationship. They decide to embark on a roadtrip with the intent to mend their relationship and have an adventure of their own. What happens along the journey forms the crux of the film.
Besides exploring the brother sister relationship, the film in parts is a road movie, which is yet another genre that has been pathetically explored in our films. The only notable exceptions to this are perhaps films such as Kacche Dhaage and North 24 Kaatham. Road movies are essentially movies concerned with the idea of self-discovery, wherein often the premise of the physical journey undertaken by its protagonists serves as an excuse for them to overcome their demons and rediscover themselves in the process. But given the fact that we, the Indian audiences are suckers for emotional manipulation and shallow melodrama, such films often resort to same and end up being preachy too. Happy Journey thankfully avoids resorting to such clichés or melodrama, though it occasionally resorts to some of it.
