“Dhobi Ghat”, directed by Aamir's wife Kiran Rao and produced by Aamir Khan Productions, is one of the highly anticipated films of the year. Releasing Friday, the movie stars Aamir and one-film old Prateik Babbar, apart from new talent like Kriti Malhotra and Monica Dogra.
It is just 95-minute long, and therefore Aamir Khan’s forthcoming film “Dhobi Ghat” will be screened across the country without any interval. Apparently the implementation of the no-intermission clause for “Dhobi Ghat” will be closely monitored across the country. Errant theatres sneaking in samosa space into “Dhobi Ghat” would be guilty of a breach of contract.
Aamir’s close friend filmmaker Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, who has been championing the cause of the abolition of the ritual, sees this as a big breakthrough in the process of guarding the creative sanctity of our films.
“Intervals are an unnatural brake applied in the middle of a film to sell samosas. There is no first-half and second-half in a film. This is an artificial division created purely to generate revenues through food sales,” said Mehra.Indian actor Rahul Bose, known for his distinct choice of roles, can’t stop praising Kiran Rao’s directorial debut “Dhobi Ghat” and says the movie provides a world-class feel.
