Matrubhoomi: A Nation Without Women

For the first time when I saw this movie it was really hard to believe that this kind of movie has been made in bollywood ,it must go down the lane as one of the most audacious attempts by Indian movie makers. It sounds really loud when I say this but the movie with few dialog set up in village named 'matruboomi' depicts the story of a village where women does not exists anymore due to the preference that has long been given to male child ,and female foeticide.A must watch for any lover of french cinema. Do not miss the scenes that shows how the people live in these conditions and behave in such ugly atmosphere, especially activities after watching porn movies. How desperate people could be for a female for sex and everything else......

Now the dowry is given by groom's family to a bride's family(as female is preferred instead of male); the story takes a turn when a family of 5 brothers and their father get to know that a girl in the neighboring town is there ,who is then married to the 5 brothers and made to sleep with each one of them. the girl (Tulip joshi)becomes a polyandry and her life becomes more & more miserable. Here also arouses the fantasies of father-in-law of girl who also gets physical with the female lead . Rest I just don't want to reveal as it will destroy any true cinema lover's interest. Do watch the ugly side of male when they brutally kill female infant in the opening sequence, and how the saint turns gay and not to mention when a person being drunk and having watched porn movie does sex with the cattle, moreover how people try to fool the other people by turning their kid into girl and try to marry them to a male for money.these are just the opening scenes . A must watch for a person who really wants to see the most bold and unrecognized attempt in bollywood.
My Rating 9/10
