Who is Laila? Who is Tara, or even Heer? They are not put in a story, to play their role of a lover, turning their lovers against the world or his family. They are not supposed to be conscious of the importance of their part in the bigger picture of Imtiaz Ali’s final thought. I don’t think so. They are not meant to know the mysteries of what lies on the other side of these questions or even be intrigued by these questions. Why?

Because they are beautiful metaphors of the utmost innocence, beyond and above anything ‘worldly’ we have to put up with, to survive.

And when Imtiaz Ali brings together a Qais and a Laila, it is not to create another Raj and Simran but to shake Qais’ or Ved’s world into disorder and bring to him those same questions of what lies “Pahad ke uss paar’’ or what is even the need of that Pahad? Laila, the metaphor, is his way to the answer and sometimes, she IS the answer.

Imtiaz Ali may provide different plots, ambitions, backgrounds; only to ditch the mundane and the superficialities of society, for ‘’…what you love and let it kill you’’ (Charles Bukowski). His philosophy resonates with me and since I am someone who deals with those existential questions day in and day out, I have the greatest urge to be the male character in all of his films.

Jordan in Rockstar holds Heer’s hand and walks her towards the field, away from right and wrong.

Ved in Tamasha finally breaks free from what limits him, with Tara as his guiding Star.

It was when Qais becomes Majnu (Urdu for mad), I knew why I chose to watch Laila Majnu after all these years of its release. I know the kind of effect these philosophical dramas have over me. I am all about the reaction that he gives in one noteworthy scene where he is talking to himself, leading to him getting hit with a stone and starts bleeding. He runs and he laughs. He is celebrating. He felt the rush, he was alive. His love was finally seen! He did not have to hide who he was anymore from anyone for the sake of this illusion of a world, now that he knows Laila is ‘real.’ The blood and the pain being the proof that he was not mad. He had his world in his Laila, walking with him all along, everywhere.

~ fic scenario ~

sebongs as bollywood scenarios/movies/actor:

coups: first thought scoups is a RAICHAND! i think he'd be a very shahrukh khan character. running and trying to catch the train which has the girl of his dream. like ddjl or even k3g

jeonghan: he's definitely the guy who keeps annoying the actress and eventually she falls in love with his charms for some apparent reason. like all Govinda movies.

joshua: omg tell me you don't think about all the iconic rom coms of Imran Khan, Jane tu ya jaane Na, Ek Mai aur ek tu, he'd be so cute for all these roles!!!

jun: junie would be amazing in the roles of Aman from kal ho na ho and/or Raj from Mohabbatein. THE MAN CAN ACT AND SO WELL!!!

hoshi: a rom com would be incomplete if hoshi isn't the star. so Varun Dhawan coded, funny, witty, loud and always dancing!

wonwoo: all those soldier romantic movies which has drama, action, romance, whether it's veer Zara, shershaah. wonwoo would kill it with the action scenes and subtle flirting!!

woozi: Aditya (Shahid Kapoor) from jab we met because how quiet and reserved woozi is but deep now we know he's an old softie!

the8: he'd suit roles of rockstar/tamasha. the soul searcher, the loves with all his heart, the passionate person who sets out to find the meaning of life!

mingyu: he's so Aditya roy Kapoor/ Siddharth Kapoor coded. he'd fit so well for Ok jaanu. biggest pookie fr. or even bunny from yjhd. I'm sorry this man is too dashing to not fit the role of "chocolate boy of bollywood"

dk: ranveer singh immediately. no other thoughts. nothing else to consider. if both of them meet it's going to be so chaotic. also something like bajirao mastani would suit our arthur so much!!!

seungkwan: ahh i think saif ali khan and his charm in the early 2000s would suit seugkwan so much. Hum tum, love aaj kal, Tara rum pum. attracting people with his wit but also being annoying at times hahaha

vernon: i think Kabir from ZNMD would be a role Vernon would slay and it also matches his personality. finding epiphany, falling in love and appreciating life!

dino: i meannn he'd be so good in movies like Ajab Prem ki gajab kahani, Student of the year or Wake up Sid. The boy next door, who is handsome, can sing and dance, is passionate about life. It'd be so cool to watch!

what roles/scenarios/actors do you think suits the members. comment below✨💕

Tamasha, a truly overlooked Bollywood masterpiece, whenever I recall this film, there's a specific song that never fails to send shivers down my spine "Agar tum saath ho". It’s a song for everyone- the ones who believe in love, the ones who don’t and the ones who are trying. For even the ones who have won in love knows what it is to lose. The song narrates the timeless struggle between the heart and the mind. Tara, dressed in deep red tones, driven by her heart. Ved, in lighter beige attire, is driven by his brain.

In this moment, Tara tightly hugs Ved, as if pleading silently for him to stay. The way in which she holds him carries an emotional weight adding a layer of emotion and urgency to the scene, suggesting that words may not be enough to convey what she feels, and her actions speak volumes in seeking his presence. She's scared to lose him, and she feels like the relationship is ending. Thus, holding on to him as tight as possible.

But Ved reluctantly pushes her away releasing himself from the hug. We can see the tears in his eyes. He seems to be struggling with inner conflicts, caught between what he wants and what makes sense.

In a quiet moment, Tara and Ved rest their heads on the table. Gently stroking his head, as if trying to nudge his brain to fall in love with her. "Agar tum saath ho". But the brain is stubborn and determined, it is not ready to listen. It is practical. Ved looks away while they rest their heads on the table, he's hiding tears and feeling exposed and vulnerable. *Ved leaves*, "Bedard thi zindagi, bedard hai". Life was merciless, it is merciless, even if he stays with her. It does not make a difference.

"Mujhe lagta hai ki baatein dil ki, hoti lafzon ki dhokhebaazi". It's like realizing that sometimes words aren't enough to express the depth of what your heart truly wants, what you truly feel for each other. Love is a relationship in which one converses through shared silences, we see that here once again in the deep silence of Tara and Ved.🌻🌙

Mani Ratnam and the Female Experience in Cinema - A Rant

For context, I just finished binge-watching a bunch of films by various filmmakers, and I just realized how difficult some of them find it to let their characters just... be.

I don't know if this is just me, but I feel like Mani Ratnam has mastered the art of portraying characters as they are. What I mean is, a lot of other filmmakers tend to portray characters through their gaze. This becomes very apparent when you watch Imtiaz Ali's films, for example. I feel like he never really lets his female characters be. They are always trying to consciously or unconsciously "fix" the broken main character.

And this isn't just because of the fact that Imtiaz Ali's films generally revolve around the theme of love healing or fixing or completing you. Because if you think about it, Mani Ratnam has also made movies that revolve around the same theme, like OK Kanmani.

In the movie, the two main characters Tara and Adi are both young ambitious people who think that marriage would tie them down and are running from various incidents from their past as well as parts of their own adulthood and identity. All of this is subtly explored in the film, and the process of both of these people healing each other and unknowingly helping each other feel safe accepting these parts of each other is portrayed amidst colorful frames and AR Rahman's beautiful tunes.

But the difference between the works of these two filmmakers is that in Imtiaz Ali's films ranging from Jab We Met to Tamasha and Jab Harry Met Sejal, each of these films show a very one-dimensional female character. She's the manic pixie dream girl when the male lead needs to renew his faith in love, she's angry when he needs to learn something, and she's sad or sick when he needs to prove his love or return his gratitude. It's like the female lead exists only for the sake of the male character, like she's more of a plot device than a person.

A similar fallacy can be seen in Gautham Vasudev Menon's films, too. Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya portrays the story of an aspiring filmmaker, Karthik, falling in love with his landlord's daughter, Jessy. The movie basically covers the suffering of Karthik in love that, in the end, translates into his first film. This is a great premise, but the issue I had with the movie is the fact that Jessy is barely a character. She's supposed to be the female lead, but sometimes it's like her brother's character (which only appears in around four or five scenes) is more fleshed out than hers. Her defining trait seems to be that she's indecisive.

Although GVM had an opportunity to portray the very real struggles of modern Indian women navigating the identity of being a responsible daughter in their families along with being an individual with desires, ambitions and thoughts of their own, he reduces Jessy to a one-dimensional character whose sole purpose in the film is for Karthik to admire, and to eventually become Karthik's muse.

Now, you might argue that this is because of the difference in who the story is about: VTV is the story of Karthik, and Jab We Met is the story of Aditya, so obviously they would only feature the thoughts and aspirations of these characters. This has nothing to do with reducing female characters to plot devices or the amount of empathy and understanding the filmmaker has of women.

To that I'd say, you need to go watch Soorarai Pottru. This film by Sudha Kongara is inspired by the story of Captain Gopinath and is a masterclass in writing good supporting female characters. Sudha Kongara, being a woman herself, knows how to portray a woman in a supporting role without compromising on the personhood of the woman. The character Bommi is bold, loud and ambitious, not only when it's convenient for the male character.

For example, there's a scene where Bommi tries to convince her husband to take tuition classes for someone because the airline isn't doing well. He acts out in anger, and instead of retreating after apologizing a bunch like the female characters of most other films, she tells him to show all his pride and anger in getting his airline to do better. Does this give the male lead a boost of determination, or impact his arc in any way? Not really. That dialogue is just there because that's what that character would've done in that situation. And this clarity on the personhood of the supporting characters, on the layers of quirks and traits that make them, is what most male filmmakers lack.

I feel like one other mainstream male director who is able to accomplish this, to some extent, at least, in Sanjay Leela Bhansali. All of his female characters seem to have some depth, at least. However, one trap that he seems to fall into is boxing his female characters into the Madonna-Whore complex. His female characters are either innocent, shy women who serve the patriarchy with all their might, and only show any signs of boldness or intelligence in the absence of their fathers or husbands, or they're bold, they question the patriarchy and they make their own decisions, but they're tawaifs or prostitutes or just "fallen women."

The complexities of both of these archetypes are thoroughly examined, the story moves without any character development feeling forced, and each of these types of women are worshipped, but the thing is, they're still less characters and more archetypes.

All this to say, male privilege and a historical disregard for the female experience has resulted in most male filmmakers just not knowing how to depict female characters in their films, but Mani Ratnam is different. I don't know if it's because of all the wonderful women in his life and team who are able to express themselves and talk about their experiences using cinema as an art form, like Suhasini Mani Ratnam and Sudha Kongara herself, who worked in Mani Ratnam's team for five years before taking off on her own, or because of Mani Ratnam's tendency to talk to people from all walks of life and actually listen to them with empathy, but he seems to be the only mainstream Indian filmmaker who is able to portray all of his characters, male and female alike, with equal depth.

Tara.

Kaunsa Tara?

Kis manzil ka?

Kya chakkar hai?

Kahan chala hai dil ka rasta bin kadmon ke?

Door khadi sapnon ki malika, hai thodi na yaar,

Mirage hai, jo desert mein dikhta hai?

Hoti ret hai, lagta paani.

Uske liye main paapad beloon?

Do kaudi ki hasti hai par us sey kheloon?

Phenk bikheroon apna sab kuch, kiski khatir?

Kise chahiye mann ka sona, aankh ki moti?

Kise padi hai, andar kya hai?

Hoti ret hai, lagta paani.”

Tara.

Which star?

Heading where?

What’s the confusion?

Where does my heart lead me, without walking?

The princess of my dreams, standing far away, unreal.

Like a mirage we find in the desert.

Looks like water, but is sand.

Why should I make efforts for her?

She’s worthless. Why bother?

Why should I sacrifice everything for nothing?

Who wants golds and pearls of the heart?

Who cares what’s inside?

Looks like water, but is sand.

[eshawrites]

Somehow for the last 8 years, Tamasha had an enormous imapact on my life. It's exceptional and I could talk about ved and tara for HOURS. Isn't it strange? To have a piece of fiction have such potential effects on you?

I've watched this masterpiece multiple times and each time I do, I discover something more unique and beautiful about the film. I owe my love for storytelling, Indian mythology and folklore to this gem , and Corsica, ofcourse - CORSICA!

I was Fifteen when i first watched tamasha and all i wanted was to live in that secluded town in Corsica where Ved and Tara first met! Away from all the 'drama' , drinking wine and crashing into fancy french restaurants and dancing to matargashti by the cliff!It's been 6 years and i still feel the same! 🥺✨
