Indian gigolo

B.A. Pass (2012)

Directed by Ajay Bahl this film based on the short story “The Railway Aunty” stars Shadab Kamal, Shilpa Shukla and Dibyendu Bhattacharya. An Indian college student starts a relationship with a married woman and she helps him become a gigolo.

It is interesting to see the usual genders of characters reversed in this tale of sex work and disaster. The plot is fairly good but not especially unusual or original. There are some decent performances but there is not a huge amount to celebrate here.


3/5
