Women come in two categories in Mumbai cinema: dull doormats and sex kittens on speed. Rarely does Mumbai cinema like to show a woman who is groping her way through life or even having sex outside marriage and loving it. Well, trust Vinta Nanda to fix that. The writer of Tara did much so shatter some myths about that women want to watch on TV. In Koel Purie, she finds an actor to match her predilection for pain. Even if she is given some bummer lines, she creates a woman who is not afraid to give as good as she gets. She hurls abuse, quaffs wine by the bottle, assaults her ex-lover and gets assaulted-all the while wearing some very stylish clothes. As for Nanda’s edgy account of the world of soap-from chain smoking TV mothers-in-law to leering channel executives-she has it down pat. But can someone please give Rahul Bose a role where he does not have to be an appropriately sensitive, New Age guy? |
