Synopsis
"Junior Ariste" is the self-adopted euphemism for the so-called Extras in the Bombay film industry: the actors and actresses who flesh out the background, make up the group scenes, fill in as party celebrants, mourners or on-lookers to the antics of the hero and heroine. We observe them at work on the set, in their union offices, and at home while trying to cope with the larger realities of living in Bombay--capital of the Bollywood merchants.
