A masterpiece Malayalam movie ‘The Great Indian Kitchen’ wonderfully portray the patriarchal mess of our so-called progressive society.
Suraj and Nimisha passes off as any normal young couple ready to start a new arranged marriage life.
What follows next is the harsh uncomfortable reality of our women’s lives.
A very common phrase of our society is that a bride has to adjust according to her husband’s house.
That’s just what happens in the movie too.
Although there’s no violence and men are not really the villains here, but what they actually are is hard to describe.
Living up to its name movie does gives ample screen time to kitchen.
But it’s not to please your taste buds but to give you a nasty knot in stomach.
While the men of the movie do as they please, women are the ones dealing with all the household chores behind.
Although there is nothing wrong in being a homemaker there is everything wrong in assigning these chores to an only gender.
While we have seen plenty of pictures of women’s love pouring through their hard work in kitchen.
What is unique in this 100 minute of extraordinary movie is the filth and mess they have to deal with on every day basis.
As men leave their waste food in plates, women have to deal with clogged sinks, as men taps on their gadgets, they expect women not to use the appliances (mixer, washing machine), as they indulge in their daily sex routine women are not even allowed to be informative about it.
Sheer brilliantness of this movie is that it doesn’t glorify rather questions the ongoing patriarchal traditions of our day to day lives.
For the same work men are highly appreciated, while same work is deemed as duty of women.
Movie also touches the sensitive verdict of supreme court on entry of woman in Sabarimala temple.
It also reflects on how even today in some parts of our country menstruating women are targeted as impure.
Directed by Jeo Baby this Malyalam masterpiece is unmissable.
Movie is currently streaming on NeeStream, a Malayalam OTT platform.
