The film opens with the shrill wail of a distraught woman. It - the film, not the wail - continues down the same emotive path for the next nearly two hours with a girl, who is a successful writer of bestsellers, not only mourning a lost love, but also ruing the sheer futility of life and even contemplating suicide. But mercifully, Jalebi turns out to be more about a lady who learns, with a little bit of prodding, to take a personal setback in her stride than about one who has given up altogether on her future.
