  • Heaven on Earth?
    Perhaps the only Deepa Mehta film which failed to engage me was the “oscar nominated” Water, helped no doubt by its best looking wooden leading pair. But then again, with the safron brigade raising its aggireved voice trembling at the very thought of another Mehta film tarnishing their age old moral code, the cast itself and the location was her second choice. The...

  • Heaven on Earth, literally…
    Heaven on Earth Just watched Deepa Mehta’s (written and directed by) latest film Heaven on Earth. After Water, I thought that maybe this would be much more satisfying, but now I am not quite sure about this. What do you make of a film that has some very good acting by all the leads (most of them being absolutely new in front of the camera), is technically very sound...

  • Heaven on Earth : mystery spoils the good premise
    Atleast efforts to search a practical solution c’d have made it a strong film on a social evil. Mystery factor reduces the impact of the well acted film. IMDB

  • First Look: Heaven On Earth and Firaaq
    Deepa Mehta’s new film Heaven On Earth recently premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival while Nandita Das’ first directorial venture Firaaq was first showcased at Telluride and then at TIFF. Both films look interesting and have met with uneven but some very encouraging reactions. Heaven On Earth is a story of a domestic abuse with elements of...

  • LAST LEAR;random thoughts
    this is not a review, just random thoughts/ rants and a question] Absolutely nothing could spoil THE LAST LEAR for me. Not the failed alarm clock in the morning due to which I woke up just about 25 minutes before the show started, not the irritating cabbie who messed up the road delaying me further, neither my wallet which was left back home and surely, surely not the...

  • The Last Lear: Bachchan’s best? Maybe, may be not, but….

Be it Othello or King Lear or Macbeth or Hamlet, its all about great emotional upheaval when it comes to the core of the Bard’s plays. In Rituparno Ghosh’s The Last Lear, Amitabh Bachchan’s (as well as most of the cast’s) first full-fledged English role, Harish ‘Harry’...
