Konkona's segment was BY FAR the best one! Absolutely outstanding, beautifully put together and intelligently crafted. The three women harmonized so well together that I got intrested in seeing a full feature film with all of them collaborating again!
Appreciation comment for Amruta. Whenever i used to see her in Marathi serials or theaters, I always thought she was not getting the due of her talent which she deserves. Now here she is, not just doing Hindi movies/series but she's doing good parts and nailing it!
First of all, look at Tillotamma the way she speaks eloquently. Her dictionary of words is so reach and her thought process is so clear. Intelligence oozes out. The day Indian society become body neutral and stop women worth deciding on beauty standards more avenues will open for every deserving woman. That’s why we need more directors like Konkana Sen Sharma.
So much talent in one frame! Konkona is truly a trailblazer - such a fine actor yet underrated. These three women deserve way more love and appreciation- more power to them!
Rahul Bose is much older. He maintained himself for long through sports mostly. But currently, the age difference would clearly show in a romantic pairing.
So much talent in one episode!!! It would be great to see them more often on screen. Such a relief to have them in in the industry. These three deserve so much more recognition.
I don't know about y'all but Tillotama Shome does it for me more than Tammanah and Mrunal. There's something so attractive about her but I don't know what it is.
I agree .n she would be great as posh woman who is a snob..that kind of role is just waiting to happen....I have such a feeling she will play that so well .. she is so so classy ...and enigmatic
KonKona is magical! She is just exceptional! She is so smart, well spoken, her mind is so clear , she is so emotionally insightful, aware of her surroundings, witty, charming, super diplomatic whilst getting her point across.. i just love her
It’s such a joy to watch women with intelligence & wit & rootedness discuss their rich creative lives. Discussing therapy as a practise for sanity in a confirming & otherwise shallow world around them is how real this interview could get . ❤
I like how good actors like these ladies never blow their own trumpet. They're always giving credit to others that allowed them to perform well onscreen.
Love Love Love this combination. Directors- cast the trio-you cannot get actors better than this. Make a 'Jee Ley Zaraa' with these three women, and the audience will thank you. ;)
Honestly looking forward to more collaborations between these women. I was so invested in their drama in Lust Stories and frankly the only story that stood among the mediocre lot. I wish more women directors could get their share of putting their creativity out there for the world to see. I felt that the whole drama that happened in the series was happening in my own living room and felt so connected with how the maid felt when she was being watched and was able to empathize with Tilothama when she got defensive when she was outed. Felt so bad when they went different ways only to discover each other strongly after. It was quite good..
Love them all in very personal ways, unlike most other Bollywood stars. It’s like the relation we had with Irrfan Khan on screen - Konkona is a gem and i always found her tremendously beautiful on the screen. Tilottama truly was luminous in Monsoon Wedding - so lovely to hear of Mira Nair’s work. May these women stay in our lives forever
I started watching this interview and realised I had not watched the Lust Stories one, I binged on both and then came back to watch this interview. What an amazing view of all these three amazing actors! And I want to say this about Amruta Subhash that I too wondered why the maids role do our Marathi actors only get these roles😢 however the power she brings to her role..hats off Amruta Subhash!
Amazing , powerful, inspiring, incredible group of four!! Love them all.. Sneha the way you caught that butterfly analogy was so great... Pls pls show us behind the scenes the things you handle for film companion.. I'm sure you do a lot, we'd wanna know!
Powerful progressive narratives …. So empowering, liberating and unshackling - but in such a gentle , nudge you along manner !!! More power to all 3 of you individually & collectively !!!
Such a power pact panel and that too during a movie promotion!! I love watching interviews of creatively rich people. And this one will stay with me for a long long time to come. What Tilottama said is so beautiful....she didn't realise how she gave us a peak into her vulnerable human side without caring one bit that the cameras were rolling. Love it! And wishing the team for a successful movie
I felt like these are the true women of the film industry. They are authentic instead of being synthetic. Their talks even gave an insight into how films influence society and vice versa. Much respect for these women. This was a gem load of information.
Thank you to these powerhouses for brining such soulful, sensitive and dignified performances in a country where mediocrity and pompous is celebrated often.
Tilli is female Irfan Khan❤! I loved him and I adore her! In fact she herself loved his creative inputs to her in the films they worked together! So happy for her😊😊
Konkona wasn't dependent on hindi cinema and so her roles and films in bengali cinema is a positive and helped her craft. If one just comes in the industry to fit in a mould, be part of box office hits and have longevity based on looks and connections. Then nothing will work because the focus on craft is missing and sooner the actress feels pushed into a corner because of success/failures, not benefiting from any influence and various reasons. Konkana's craft and also Tillotama has set them apart that they don't need validation or trying hard to survive in one industry.
Thank you for the striking interview. Koko pls direct more movies Tillotoma I have never seen a good actor like you. And Amruta first time I watched you and just blown away. Want this trio to make good stuff in the future.
The general mindset is if not in your 20s, it is no more. The fact is you are at your best in your 40s. So you stop giving a penny to what others want. That is when you flourish.
All three of my favorite women in one interview. Such a treat to the eyes, ears, brain and soul. One thing I didn't understand Wikipedia says TS is 35 years old and she said she's in her 40s.
Interesting to watch when Amruta is talking about 'the walk', Konkona suddenly gets restless (as she has a point to make) that she might lose her train of thought and still waits for Amruta to complete, but quickly joins in. Reminded me of a classroom discussion where one would be critiquing a piece of work and then you have to raise your hand, so that you are heard before you lose your pov on that. So endearing!
It could only come from Koko. We do not have representation in our films. Still the conventional notin of pretty fair beauty works. Thanks to Konkona and all of them, I see peole who are beautiful both inside and out!
Wonderful set of women❤ Deeply enriching in their art but are unfortunately underutilized. Why is that people who should be at the core are seldom found at the periphery and all we can do is pine for their periphery .
Tilottama mentions multiple times in this interview that she is in her 40s, but her Wikipedia page says that her age is 35. She doesn't look like in her 40s, either.
These ladies must read Chalam's and Ranganayakamma's telugu novels from 50's to 70s. They would know how progressive those two were 60 years ago. On Tilottama - if I have money I would make sequel to Sir, where I portray her a successful and rich but also kind person that comes across the passing love from her past.
More power to these women, love watching and hearing them, so grounded practical despite being immensely talented. Even if they are just invited once in a while to speak and share some insights, the space for dialogue and discussion would get enriched.
