Mr. Banerjee had recently moved to Mumbai from Shimla for official work. It was summer, Mr. Banerjee and his family started feeling the heat even when they moved around the city in their air-conditioned car.

As it did not feature a tinted glass, he went to a local garage and got a sun film added to his car’s windows.
