Disclaimer: Trust me, I am a no "fake feminist" 🙏 and no major spoiler ahead 😝
Often we are bombarded with messages, films and news pieces as "Must-Watch/read for Women".😅 You, gentlemen, here is a MUST-WATCH PIECE for you, "The Great Indian Kitchen". Don't miss it. Watch it on NeeStream.🎦
At one point in time, the movie-watcher starts gasping for air by merely watching the amount of work a housewife does. Of course, times have changed and there is a sense of sharing in some of our households, but in a democratic county, apparently we go by majority. In that connection, yes, I do not hesitate to say that kitchens own Indian housewives. Working women - that play dual roles - have no escape either👎. As I personally know men who do not even wash their tea glasses at houses, the director's portrayal is no exaggeration at all🙆. But same men would stick to etiquettes elsewhere! Hypocrisy at best! Shameless! 😄
Though I am not for those isolation practices during menstrual cycles, I initially felt happy for the lead character to have been isolated for it would give her the much needed rest. As movie goes on, that happiness is not long lived🙅. Woman to woman equation is also unpleasant. 😓
And yeah, women cannot be open to husband as far as sexual desires are concerned. Even usage of word "foreplay" attracts insult.
The whole movie moves like a documentary though. However visits of guests, what kitchen work composes of, how personal needs of each and everyone vary, why even mothers are for patriarchal practices, elegantly touching upon respecting one's opinion, and making life's choices are all genuinely pictured!👍
On a personal note:
(1) To make some of you jealous 😉: I watched the film alone and did not recommend it to my husband as it has no relevance to him! 💖💞 Lucky me 😍
(2) My attitude towards being a guest to a house has changed.👭
(3) I personally remind my family male and female members that ours is a not a great Indian kitchen. 🙅
