Mani KaulCast
Shah Rukh Khan Mita Vasisht
Plot
An adaptation of Dostoevsky's novel.
Sinekatalog’s take
Mani Kaul's adaptation of Dostoevsky sets the novel in contemporary India, with Shah Rukh Khan in an early role. Stylised, slow and austere, in Kaul's formal manner, it is a daring if difficult transposition.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
