Uski Roti is a 1969 Hindi film directed by Mani Kaul. It was Kaul's first feature film, based on a short story of the same name by Mohan Rakesh, who also wrote the dialogue for the film. The film depicts the life of a bus driver Sucha Singh (Gurdeep Singh) and his wife Balo (Garima). Balo has to get Sucha Singh's food ready every day, walk a long distance through the fields and wait for him on the highway as he drives past the village. He leads an independent life, playing cards with his friends and spending time with his mistress, and comes home only once a week. However, he expects his wife to play the traditional role. The narrative is non- linear; hence we can attest to incidents but not be certain of sequence. One day Balo is late. Balo wants to save her sister from the advances of a lecherous villager. Sucha Singh is angry, drives away without his food, declares his freedom to come home when he chooses. The ending is indeterminate.
