Is Sanya Malhotra’s new movie Mrs based on The Great Indian Kitchen?
After her notable performance in Jawan, Sanya Malhotra returns with Mrs. Many cinephiles are eager to know if Mrs draws inspiration from The Great Indian Kitchen. The critically acclaimed Malayalam film brings gender roles and misogyny in Indian households to the forefront. The Great Indian Kitchen revolves around a woman’s life in an Indian household and her struggle against societal norms.
Mrs explores similar themes and offers a fresh perspective on these issues. Both films share a common thread, shedding light on the lives of women who often find themselves confined to the roles of cooking, cleaning, and submission to their husbands. Sanya Malhotra’s character, Richa, embarks on a journey that parallels the experiences of the lead in The Great Indian Kitchen.
Mrs is set to have its world premiere at the 27th edition of the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival (POFF). All in all, this premiere is an important moment for the film. This is because it aims to spark a conversation about the challenges and triumphs faced by women on a global scale. Furthermore, Mrs has also been selected under the Critics Pick Competition category at the film festival.
