The Falling : Beyond farmer suicide
Posted by admin | 431 Views

The Aamir Khan production directed by Anusha Rizvi, The Falling, is not just a take on farmer suicide but also on media’s obsession with
‘breaking news’ and publicity-hungry politicians. While Raghuvir Yadav plays the role of a farmer who announces his suicide days in
advance, Nawaz (last seen in New York and Dev D ) essays the role of an aspiring hotshot reporter who decides to go town with Yadav’s
announcement. His news catches the attention of news channels and politicians, which in turn results in Yadav’s character failing to commit
suicide. The story’s irony lies in the fact that Nawaz’s character, which unknowingly acts as a catalyst in saving the farmer’s
life, kills himself after he finds himself disagreeing with the ethical standards being practised by certain sections of the media. Interestingly,
while shooting across homes, fields and roads at Badwai village near Bhopal, the unit managed to keep reporters, shutterbugs as well as locals at
bay. -Ruma Malia - Screenindia.com
