Manu Joseph is at it again. Exploring what men are about. His writing seems a compelling commentary lately.
Quotes a conversation with Sudhir Mishra ahead of his Daas Dev release –
“There is the idea of the manly hero,” Mishra says, and this is an idea that is farcical. “If you do not explore the vulnerabilities of a man, you will not make a movie, you will make a condom ad.”
And then, there is this very fine grain of an observation by Mishra-
“There is the mythology of you, we all have a mythology of ourselves, but then we see our real selves in a story and we recognize what we are.”
Slow clap!
