Pinjra. 1972. V Shantaram

It is the upper caste man’s aspiration for purity that is the reason for his ultimate downfall. Confronted with a corrupt life as a sexual being he chooses instead purity in the ultimate abstraction- a ghost. Ideal. . Sandhya is more phenomenon than human- a perfect foil against which Shriram lagoo’s incredible transformation from moralistic prude to degenerate is played out- from the seduction of the bare thigh to the eventual melodrama of blood as sindoor. the music- and the dances- disala ga bai/ uchaki. Shantaram was a genius.
