-

Sanya Malhotra’s upcoming film, Mrs, is generating buzz on the festival circuit, emerging as a favourite for its exploration of domesticity and gender roles. The Hindi remake of the acclaimed Malayalam movie, The Great Indian Kitchen (2021), Mrs is directed by Arati Kadav and is set to be the closing film at the New York Indian Film Festival (NYIFF) 2024.

Kadav expressed her excitement at having her film showcased at the festival. Speaking to Mid-day, she shared, “I look forward to the films screened at the NYIFF every year. So, I feel privileged that we’ve been chosen as the closing film. With this film, our aim is to connect with Indian audiences living not just in India, but also abroad, and this platform helps us reach the diaspora.”

Described as “exotically delicious,” Mrs uses the backdrop of Indian cuisine to delve deeper into the societal pressures placed on women. The synopsis paints a picture of a young dance teacher, Richa, who falls for a wealthy doctor, Diwakar. However, their happily ever after quickly sours as Richa finds herself trapped in a loveless marriage, expected to cook, clean, and cater to her husband’s whims. The synopsis cleverly uses culinary metaphors to depict the stifling nature of Richa’s situation, describing her life as “an overcooked and tasteless happily ever after laced with misogyny, arrogance, and stubbornness.” Despite the challenges, Richa doesn’t give up easily. The synopsis highlights her defiance, stating that “The kitchen has the solution to all problems. So, Richa cooks splendid dishes with love and dedication and refuses to yield to male dominance.”

The cast of Mrs boasts some promising talent. Sanya Malhotra takes on the lead role of Richa. Nishant Dahiya portrays Diwakar, the doctor who turns out to be a domineering husband. Rounding out the cast is Kanwaljit Singh, whose role remains undisclosed.

The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande, Pammi Baweja, and Harman Baweja.

After playing in theatres for 10 days, the Salman Khan starrer Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has entered the Rs. 100 Crore Club. It has taken a while for the film to reach here since pre-pandemic it was an entirely different scenario where Salman Khan starrers were scoring as much in their opening weekend itself. However, these are different times and hence the kind of momentum that was evidenced for films in 2019 or before is just not coming in. Yes, there are exceptions like Pathaan or Brahmastra but then those have a different kind of pitch and aren’t regular affairs. This can be seen in the way how collections are coming for the Farhad Samji directed film in the second weekend, what with Sunday collections staying low at Rs. 3.50 crores. For a big holiday release, one would have been expecting a double digit score at the bare minimum on second Sunday but then that has hardly happened for any film during last 18 odd months ever since Akshay Kumar’s Sooryavanshi opened theatres aga
