HOME | SCOOP!! & NEWS | BOLLYWOOD Being Cyrus – A psychological drama23rd Mar 2006 16.15 IST By Aparajita Ghosh A dope-smoking sculptor, his adulterous wife and a young man with a bizarre personality are some of the characters of this Friday’s release Being Cyrus . The movie, starring Saif Ali Khan , Naseeruddin Shah , Dimple Kapadia , Boman Irani and Simone Singh, is the directorial debut of Homi Adajania .
The movie’s story revolves around a Parsi family, the Sethnas. Naseeruddin Shah plays Dinshaw Sethna, a dope-smoking retired sculptor living with his wife Katy (Dimple Kapadia) in the secluded hills of Panchgani. Saif Ali Khan plays Cyrus Mistry, who comes into Dinshaw’s household as an apprentice but indulges in a relationship with his wife Katy during his stay there. The other members of the Sethna family live in a dilapidated building in Mumbai. They are Dinshaw’s aged father Fardounjee Sethna, his brother Farokh (Boman Irani) and Farukh’s wife (Simone). The story of ‘Being Cyrus’ brings to the fore the dysfunctional sides of the Sethna family. In the process, the bizarre shades of Cyrus’ personality are also revealed. The official site of the movie describes ‘Being Cyrus’ as an obsessive, inconclusive, disorderly and strangely human story about an outsider struggling to get inside himself. The film is described as a fresh take on the classic Film Noir genre. WHAT IS FILM NOIR? Film Noir literally means ‘black film’. It is a French term for a genre of cinematographic film marked by moods of pessimism and fatalism. The term was originally given by French critics to the dark American thrillers of the late 1940s and early 50s made by filmmakers like Orson Welles and Billy Wilder. ‘Being Cyrus’ explores the psychological shades of its main characters. The film also has elements of quaint comedy. It is set to release on March 24.
