Hey Ram. Kamalhasan. 1999. Pull out all the stops in melodrama...





















Hey Ram. Kamalhasan. 1999.
Pull out all the stops in melodrama with the strings on the soundtrack, the sexual tragic women, the conflicted central character whose masculinity is challenged when he can’t protect his wife, ghosts that haunt him, his confusion in the labyrinth of inner city Delhi where he can’t decide between friends and enemies, crying children, the insecurity and shame that leads to right wing bigotry, the last scene with a cameo from Tushar Gandhi as they open the windows through his grandfather to the world. Rage and revenge in turbulent times in a turbulent film.
