Aroview: Set in colonial Bengal, this adaptation of Nobel prizewinner Rabindranath Tagore's 1902 novel, concerns a beautiful widow (Aishwarya) who enters a rich household and subtly manipulates the hosts to her own designs... or does she? Lusciously filmed, this captures well the emotional ambiguities of the storyline, with the feminist subtext brought to fruition by dir. Ghosh.
