Anjali Sivraman as Amrita. She has a very interesting face and eyes. I hear that she is a talented actress too!

Strong actors in the cast

I am Looking forward for it

Amrita was a very skilled painter, dying far too young. I find it interesting that Mira Nair got inspiration from her expressive paintings

I especially like this painture (in Hungary):

and this one (in India):

Although Madame Azurie didn't have a personal connection to Amrita, Mira chose to include her into the movie to show the vibrant, changing entertainment scene of 1930s and 1940s Bombay.

Priyanka plays the classical dancer and actress, famous for introducing high-energy cabaret (a revolutionary style of performance that fundamentally reshaped film entertainment) and "item" dances to the early Indian film industry.

Dancers like Madame Azurie blended Western classical ballet training with traditional Indian classical styles like Kathak, Bharatanatyam, and Manipuri. A famous example includes Azurie dancing in silhouette on top of a giant drum in the 1935 film Chandrasena. (source AI)
