CERTIFICATE
|
a.
For
vigorously taking up the challenge of exploring sexuality in women perceived
to be differently abled.
b.
For
its chilling depiction of the ground realities in the bread basket of India.
The tone and texture of the film contradict the prevalent narrative of it
being the best place to live and work.
c.
For
its searing critique of middle class hypocrisy and a corrupt society as seen
through the eyes of an impressionable child.
d.
For
an entertaining biography of a wonderfully engaging personality, with shades
of a near chaotic life style, set in a period known for its path-breaking
music.
