Several decades ago there was a pretty Indian company town far away from Bollywood. Most people there were middle class and ordinary, husband, stay at home wife, kids. But one couple was glamorous. The Wife chain-smoked cigarettes and wore low cut clothes and the Husband adored her for her glamour. They sang mournful Urdu songs together. in those days all this was not usual. They had no kids but the wife had a Teenager born, we were told, from a previous marriage. The Teenager did not live in the town and never visited either. We heard that he had Problems – drugs, suicide attempts. I overheard once that his mother often said “Don’t call me mother” over the phone.
Fast forward to decades later when children from the company town had grown up and then some. These grown up kids spoke with their ageing parents about their days in the pretty company town – which almost everyone had left now. In the course of these reminiscences one such kid heard a jaw-dropping tale from his parent, who now considered him old enough to hear such a story. The tale rang true, because it made a lot of other things fall into place.
The story was: The glamorous lady was the sister of a famous film director of the past, an early proponent of Bollywood noir and interesting female characters.They – film director brother and glam sister – had had a sexual affair and the Teenager was their offspring.
It all made sense now. The teenager’s drug issues, the Director’s alcoholism and his sister’s chain smoking – all speak of the addictions that generally surround incestous situations.
But more – way more compelling verification than that are the films of the director – one of which explicitly has a brother-sister incest undertone and nearly all of which skirt the boundary of incestuous sexual desire and its dilemmas. Furious googling produced very little of a personal nature except that the Director had married and had several legitimate, hopefully non-incestous children. And then an interview with a child of the Director’s surfaced in which she speaks of how he admired the female form – whether it was his mother or sister or daughter – ugh – yuck – though seems innocent and arty if you don’t have the back story huh?
There you go – a bombshell blind item for those interested in the Bollywood of the past.
