Rajnigandha (Dir. Basu Chatterjee, 1974)

(Reviewed 4/5 on letterboxd.com in Feb 2018)


A film about the desires and fantasies of a young bourgeois woman, trying to decide between the two loves of her life. Quite ahead of its time, even though it tries its best not to appear completely blasphemous to the contemporary Indian society of the 70's. I think Vidya Sinha's conservative and dreamy (bordering on dumb) character definitely helps in that regard.
