Maja ma

Director Anand Tiwari presents the topic of LGBTQ in a very new way and kudos to him for that. While most Hindi films address the issue by focusing on millennials, Tiwari shifts the focus to a middle-aged Indian woman, who has had a past, had feelings but had bowed down to the stereotypical norms of society and decided to hide her truth for years. In recent years, we have seen how the Indian film industry has worked thoroughly on normalising characters belonging to LGBTQ+ community among the audience. Many films have explored same-sex romance on celluloid. Initially, these films and the actors faced a lot of backlash, but things started changing over time. Now, many mainstream actors have joined the steady revolution by giving a nod to portraying a gay character on screen. In the past, we have seen films majorly focusing on young individuals coming out, and fighting the family and society at large in the process. However, the recently released film 'Maja Ma' is slightly different from the rest. But does the film manage to put forth a strong message or does it miss the mark? Let's find out. What is the story? Amazon Prime's recently released film is about a middle-class Gujarati woman, Pallavi Patel, played by evergreen beauty Madhuri Dixit. She plays the perfect Indian mother-she makes the best food in the world, she's talented, and she knows how to paint - a goddess-like figure- basically, a typical representation of a mother we have seen in the Indian film industry for d...

What does a long-married couple do when they discover that their years together have been based on a lie? Do they call it quits, or do they take a deep breath, step back, and try to figure things out? The premise of ‘ Things start going askew when the parents of the bride, Bob and Pam Hansraj (Rajit Kapur and Sheeba Chaddha) arrive in India, armed with their deep prejudices and exaggerated accents. The very grounded, middle-class Patels are patronised at every turn. So authentic, aa-then-tic, drawls Bob, when they are welcomed into the house with an ‘arti’; Pam delivers herself of strained smiles whenever an opportunity arises, which is often. To make matters more complicated, old friends Kanchan and Moolchand (Simone Singh and Kamat) show up, and it becomes evident that she shares history with the lady of the house. The slight thaw amongst the desis and the NRIs is shoved suddenly into cold storage by a strange rumour floated about Pallavi, who has been all these years the very epitome of devoted wife and mother. The rumour takes root, and spreads like wildfire. Has Pallavi been true to her spouse? Or has she suppressed feelings for someone else, which have now burst out into the open? Also read | Though Bollywood has grappled with same sex love in the past, and is now much more comfortable with what used to be considered taboo, a film which speaks so openly about what could have been, is still something to feel chuffed about. A conversation between Pallavi and Manohar ab...
