Trisha: Mohini will be a visual treat

Horror film Mohini, starring Trisha in the lead role, is all set to hit the screens this week after languishing in production hell for two years. The filmmakers claimed that the repeated strikes in the Tamil film industry was one of the main reasons that led to the delay in the completion of the film.

Trisha, director Ramana Madhesh and the other members of the cast and crew met the media while promoting Mohini. During the press meet, Trisha revealed that she has played a double role in the film, which is a first in her career. She added that between Mohini and Vaishnavi, Mohini is her favorite. “Mohini is a very different character. It has an edge over Vaishnavi because of her body language, expressions and dialogue delivery.”

The actor also revealed that playing Mohini gave her the opportunity to perform a lot of action sequences in the film.

Trisha said that the filmmakers took extra care to ensure the visual quality of the film. “It is going to be a visual treat. In spite of all the obstacles, the director never compromised on the quality. Every frame has been shot beautifully. This film has all the commercial elements to be a complete entertainer,” she said, while adding that about 90 percent of the film was shot in London.

The trailer that was released earlier suggests that the film revolves around an ancient spirit, Mohini, that returns to seek vengeance against those who wronged her.

The film is bankrolled by S. Lakshman Kumar of Marvel Worth Productions and has Bollywood actor Jackky Bhagnani playing the male lead. Actors Yogi Babu, Suresh, Poornima Bhagyaraj, Shenturan and others play the supporting cast.

Mohini has been cleared by the censor board with a clean U certificate, paving the way for its theatrical release on June 27.

Emma Thompson: I was always paid less than my male counterparts

Emma Thompson says she was always paid less than her male colleagues. The 59-year-old actor-writer said women are still treated as “second-class citizens”. She also advocated to publish salaries to reveal the gender pay gap. “I was always paid less than my male counterparts. Publishing figures is the first step. “It’s a forensic way of looking at how women are second-class citizens, and I appreciate that because it’s not emotional. This is the fact: this person does the same work for less money, and that’s just wrong,” Thompson told Good Housekeeping magazine.

Dhadak review: There is no ‘dhak dhak’ in this Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter starrer

Dhadak movie cast: Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, Kharaj Mukherjee, Aditya Kumar Dhadak movie director: Shashank Khaitan Dhadak movie rating: One and a half stars Remaking Sairat for mainstream Bollywood was always going to be a tough ask. The edges of that searing 2016 tale of love-in-the-time-of-caste were necessarily going to have to be blunted and softened, because too much ‘realism’ is hard for us to handle. There isn’t a filmmaker working in India who can match Sairat director Nagraj Manjule’s appetite for recreating raw slap-in-the-face directness for the screen: the only one who can match him is Sanal Sashidharan, and neither of them work, for obvious reasons, in Bollywood, where dirt needs to be proffered up in pretty ribbons. What I was expecting from this Karan Johar production, I got– a polish-up-the-muck aesthetic to make it palatable for mainstream audiences. What I didn’t get, was feeling. That sense of playfulness ...
