A content film on women that hinges on a blouse

A woman dragging a tailor to court for not stitching her blouse properly may seem bizarre. But when she raises her voice against the inconvenience that an ill-stitched blouse causes, a plethora of things interlinked to feminine as well as societal issues crop up, which form the crux of a content film in Kannada titled Ravike Prasanga.

Addressing presspersons in Hubballi on Monday, film director and screenplay writer Santhosh Kodenkeri said that the term ravike (blouse) in the title is enough for some to brand the film in a particular manner, but it touches upon various strings attached to a woman’s life.

Mr. Kodenkeri, who has earlier directed off-beat films like Home Stay, Ondanondu Kaaladalli Obba Raja Idda, said that their effort has been to look at various issues related to a woman keeping the blouse as a symbolic medium.
