In the previous post our spunky reader, DK complained – lekin kab do kudiyon ko leke kuch banayengey?? – and holy cow her wish just got answered.
From the land of desi jhatkas matkas comes our very own (first) Bisexual damsel in Devang Dholakia’s 3 Nights 4 Days. Played by actress Madhuri Bhattacharya, Zoya hails from an affluent Hyderabadi Muslim family. Creative, witty, talented with special liking for sarcasm and Madonna. She always knew what she wanted from life while she was studying fashion designing. But wait-O-wait, secret thing about her is her liking for girls. Despite being disowned by her family for her sexual preferences, Zoya continues to make progress in her chosen path.

Honestly I don’t know about you Chic(k)lets but I’m quite a cynic when it comes to Bollywood’s interpretation of Queer folks. And I have a gut feeling that this film ain’t gonna be any different, for instance; the Production guys probably decided to go against having an out-n-out lezzie to avoid any sort of boo-haa with the moral brigade rascals. Zoya’s sexuality angle is just there to titillate the audience without any meaningful screen time. Some childhood disaster made her lean towards same sex entanglements. You get the picture….right!
Anyway no more speculation, let’s see what this Friday unfolds.
PS – Credit to be given though, the woman looks cute.
Stumble it!
Lisa Ray would’ve been better
I am actually trying hard to remember what I was wearing, what time was it, in which thinking mode I was in while I post that comment….desparately want to wish something
…very obvious…isn’t it? Yea, to inverse the sex-ratio, so that the chances of finding my girl are increased..lols.
I am also feeling ‘thanda’ about the movie, after reading the preview.
hmm..will be interesting to see if there’s any real action. or even to what extent the characters even confront it or act upon it. However, as you say, most likely bollywood may shy away from giving it a proper place and screen time in the story.
