Nandana Sen says no to nude scene

Nandana is not ready to do this film, which requires her to bare her skin once again. The film is based on eminent Bengali writer Mahasweta Devi’s short story ‘Behind the Bodice’ (Choli ke Picche). Nandana was approached for playing a tribal woman of 1950’s era when poor rural women used to just wrap sari on their body without a blouse.

The project is however a desirable one, but Nandana’s apprehension for the film is evident with this quoted statement, “It’s a powerful story and although I support it fully I feel the subject matter is such that the tribal girl's nudity cannot avoid becoming unintentionally voyeuristic and exoticised even though that is definitely not the objective.”


Or may be the actress doesn’t want to indulge in nudity for another film right after Ketan Mehta’s Rang Rasiya in which she plays the muse of legendary painter Raja Ravi Verma, played by Randeep Hooda and poses nude for his paintings. And since the movie deals with the subject of censorship of art, nudity was at the very core of the film. Nandana’s scenes in the yet-to-be released film are not obscene and were shot aesthetically. The actress had showed her bareback in the movie Tango Charlie too.

After Nandana’s no, the movie has been pushed to the next year. Post Slumdog Millionaire many westerners are apparently keen to make movies in India.
