Victim of violence
Raveena Tandon's getting ready for her next test at the turnstiles.
Daman, a tour de force on marital rape and oppression of women is
going o be her next outing. Raveena, we hear, plays the protagonist, or
the victim, shall we say, in the heartrending tale of domestic violence,
directed by Kalpana Lajmi.
Sayaji Shinde plays Raveena's sexual sadist husband in the tale that
also features the likes of Sanjay Suri, Raima Sen and pop-throb,
Shaan. While Raima and Shaan provide the viewpoints of the sensitive
male on the issue. The film, which underlines the mindset of
middle-class women trapped in unhappy marriages, has been complete
in two schedule at Guwahati and Amsui in Assam.
The grapevine has it that Raveena has yet another role in the offing
that borders on sexual violence - the upcoming Aks, we're told has her
in a stripping scene. Women activists are reportedly calling for a
boycott of the film, even before they've confirmed whether the
offending scene is indeed a part of it. Activism, don't forget, doesn't
need valid reasons. Not in India, at any rate.
