Maja Ma(Amazon Prime Video)
Starring Madhuri Dixit, Gajraj Rao, Ritwick Bhowmick
Director Anand Tiwari
The LGBTQ community is suddenly getting a lot of attention from Bollywood. Ayushmann Khurrana and Rajkummar Rao played gay characters recently. Now it is the divine Ms Madhuri Dixit playing a Gujarati housewife In Maja Ma who after years of obedient housekeeping is forced out of the closet.
Actor turned director Anand Tiwari(who did well for himself while helming Bandish Bandits) is on firm ground. He explores the Gujarati middleclass household and the gossipy rigidly conservative milieu with confidence. Once again after The Fame Game, Madhuri plays a wife and a mother with dark secrets. This time she is more tragic than mysterious. Wordlessly she slips into her character Pallavi Patel’s pained past to dig out uncomfortable truths.
It is a bold audacious concept. The film asks some uncomfortable questions about an individual...
