A character here actually grabs her own breasts and equates it to a pound of flesh and goes on to reduce other body parts with biological simplicity. How this goes down, includes high-octane hamming and grime-laced objectification.
But when her royal patron fails to put her out of her predicament, she decides to take matters in her own hands. Her allegiance with the raja earns her a certain privilege that supersedes the law of the land. When slapped with an eviction notice by the two diplomats from either side of the expected border, the Begum is barely bothered. The owner of this outfit, a pessimistic authoritarian Begum Jaan ( Vidya Balan) cares for the half a dozen women who’ve each been damned by life in some particular way to resort to the oldest profession in the world.īegum Jaan song: Vidya Balans 'Prem Mein Tohre' is soulful Asha Bhosle at her best A period of tremendous churn when thousands were displaced and forced to pick sides, this film focuses on the fate of a brothel that happens to fall bang in the middle of the determined border - so precisely that the inevitable Partition would cut it down the middle like an equally divided pie chart.

The Raja eventually voices his curiosity, “Tumhare gale mein kya atka hain?” “Sheru ka baal,” she says of her beloved canine pet who had been mercilessly butchered and sneakily served in her meal as a threatening message of sorts. Coughing constantly and visibly shaken, her incoherent speech is laced with expletives.
