Dibakar Banerjee바카라s directorial debut, 바카라Khosla Ka Ghosla바카라 is considered to be one of the finest Hindi films and also his best work to date. However, in a recent conversation, the filmmaker said that he cannot make that film today because it is patriarchal.

Speaking on 바카라Unfiltered by Samdish바카라, Dibakar Banerjee said that he cannot relate to 바카라Khosla Ka Ghosla바카라 anymore. The only emotion that he feels with the film is nostalgia. He said, 바카라Khosla Ka Ghosla is a very patriarchal film. I can바카라t make a film as patriarchal as that anymore. It will feel like a lie.바카라

Explaining the patriarchal angle of the film, the director said, 바카라It바카라s about the father and the sons. All the female characters are helpers, they are all enablers. The character of Tara Sharma in Cherry바카라s life is also an enabler.바카라 He mentioned that not just the film, but the characters are patriarchal as well. He added, 바카라At the end of the film, all of them live together in that 바카라train-coach바카라 type house. I don바카라t agree with it anymore. This is not how it should be. But that바카라s the ideology, that바카라s a different story.바카라

바카라Khosla Ka Ghosla바카라 revolves around a middle-class man who tries to gain possession of his land and ends up losing his savings. Starring Anupam Kher, Boman Irani, Vinay Pathak, and Ranvir Shorey, the film won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Hindi in 2006. It proved to be a commercial success. The film has also been remade in Tamil and Kannada.
