Official Masaan Trailer Out!
Every now and then, there comes a film that makes us numb to the point where our conscience awakens itself and we start looking for answers to our “whys” and “why nots”. Masaan by director Neeraj Ghaywan is one of such films. After winning big at Cannes, the film released its official trailer today and after watching it, we are absolutely stunned.
The film will take us through the lives of two women who live in Varanasi. The trailer starts with Shweta Tripathi reciting a beautiful poem in the background and soon, we are introduced to the characters and their separate twisted stories in the film. First we meet Shalu, a girl who belongs to the upper class and falls in love with a guy from untouchable caste who earns his daily bread by burning dead bodies at the crematorium located at the ghat of Ganga. And then we meet second character from the film, Devi, who, along with her father, is being blackmailed by a police officer after the police catches her with her fellow student Piyush in a hotel and accuses them of indulging in “indecent behavior” and also records her MMS.
Jointly produced by Manish Mundra, Macassar Productions, Anurag Kashyap’s Phantom Films and Sikhya Entertainment, Masaan was screened at Cannes Film Festival 2015 under Un Certain Regard. The film is all set to hit the theatres on July 24, 2015. Click Here To Read More
