Most audiences have been skeptical of the film’s digital release when it hit theaters. ‘The Great Indian Kitchen’ is an old-fashioned answer to the question of how the movie will be received if the background created by the stars and the hits hit the fingertips, what the visual experience will be like in the theater and what the future holds for the movie.
Despite being released on an unfamiliar platform, the film has become a blockbuster movie in a matter of days. Through the long kitchen scenes, a director portrays the woman suffocating inside and makes the audience experience that suffocation; Geo Baby.
The film is also the director’s super hit in three films. Geo Baby News 18 Malayalam, which has successfully tested the formula of a simple feminist film.
Why is the story of an ordinary girl we see all around us in a feminist film?
I have heard stories of girls with nightmares and achievements. It was thought that it should be avoided. We are surrounded by girls whose dreams of working as a dance teacher are not accepted and not even a small wish can be fulfilled. I know them. The known story and situation were chosen.
Who is the ‘Creative Head’ of the film ‘Beena’? Is the character adaptation from someone like the heroine of the movie?
Beena is my wife. I am someone who wants equality in the home kitchen. In addition to helping my wife, I have spent a lot of time in the kitchen as part of my married life. I got into terrible frustration when I started working on egalitarianism.
The kitchen began to feel like hell, with endless work to do and waste treatment to do. That made me uncomfortable. The moment in the movie is hand-smelling, and I have done so many times while in the kitchen.
I had a lot of mental problems. When it comes to writing after kitchen work, there is no mood to write. Or you may have to go back to the kitchen while writing. It was when I started to face such issues that I started thinking about these women. However I have my own freedom when working in the kitchen. You can leave the job to someone else. That situation is not for everyone. That’s how I ask Bean one night if we can make a movie centered on the kitchen.
The response and cooperation of the wife and the way she came to the ‘Great Indian Kitchen’
His wife’s response was that if a movie like this came out, it would be good. We started discussing what should be included in the film and what should not be. Tell me a story from a Muslim family. I wondered if it was a Christian family. Then I decided to choose a more familiar background.
My wife is a member of a Hindu family. The wife explained some of the problems experienced by women when someone goes to Sabarimala at home and the difficulties during menstruation. My wife took care of the affairs of the women in such houses, making my work easier. She also brought the experiences of her cousins and relatives.
I also talked to my younger sister. “There’s no movie about us, do it quickly,” was the response. Experiences, including girlfriends, were helpful. The film changed that way.
When the theaters were about to open, the OTT Announcement for release
The film was completed in early December. From the very beginning, OTT The release was of interest. Even when the theater opened, there were estimates that there would be half a dozen people and a family audience. I doubt there would have been such a push in the theater. The film is so celebrated because it can be seen anytime, anywhere.
No matter how simple the background, the actress, who is amazing with her acting, arrives at the ‘Great Indian Kitchen’
The moment was with us, giving all cooperation from the beginning. Moment is also someone who works in the kitchen and clearly knows the kitchen chores. And not the girl stuck in the kitchen. So there was no need for special training for the moment.
Suraj Venjaramoodu and Nimisha once again after ‘Thondimuthalum Driksakshiyum’
Producer Dijo talks about Suraj during the discussion on the need for six as the husband of the heroine Moment. I did not know Suraj. We talked. After thinking, Suraj went to the cinema saying that he could tell. It also reveals his social consciousness.
This is due to the fact that there are female characters in the film who promote male dominance
They are caught up in this. They do not know that they are trapped. Clear authoritarianism creates such female characters. They live in the belief that it works for the good and prosperity of a family.
They are not even aware that they are part of a system. They do not allow those who are born into it to escape. A release can only come if you work hard. Dominance and religion have a role to play in this
Whose face in the society does the heroine pour dirty water from in the kitchen?
From the very beginning of the planning for the movie, the home kitchen and its leaking tap were included. All of this is present in many homes. I noticed these things as I visited each house. There are houses where the sound can be heard from the sink when the night is quiet everywhere.
Even before all the scene orders of the movie are completed, the scene where the dirty water is poured on the face is confirmed. The dirty water seemed to drain the men’s faces. 99.9% of men deserve that dirty water. A small percentage of men may not be included.
In the background of the movie
The production of the film was not likely to take place normally through a production house. I realized that I or one of our communities had to find the money for this. Jomon, Dijo, Sajin and Vishnu, who studied together in college, started thinking that we should all make a good film together. The beauty of this film is also the creative freedom they gave me. The next film is under discussion.
