मजा मा | MAJA MA (2022) dir. Anand Tiwari Pallavi Patel is the quintessential, middle aged, devoted housewife who is equally famous for her dance as she is for her cooking. Her husband, Manohar Patel, is the chairman of the local society, her daughter Tara is getting her PhD in sexuality and gender identity, and her son Tejas, who lives in America, is about to marry into a rich but very strict family. But when Tejas' future in-laws come to visit, the accidental revelation of Pallavi's 30-year-old secret puts both the marriage and the Patel's reputation in danger.

5 songs from QLs (queer movies and shows)

Thank you for tagging me @dummerjan 💚

🎶They do not have to be custom-made for the series.

🎶Non-western tracks only. Let's support Asian music and languages! 🎶Feel free to tag anyone who may be interested in participating. 🎶Add #5qls tag to your post for others to find the new favourites!

So, I'll start the list with some Hindi songs as that's my beloved mother-tongue 😍 I'll basically list the queer movie/show name first and then its OST.

1. Maja Ma - Buniyaad by The Yellow Diary

This movie left me stunned. It was the first indian queer film I watched centred around a middle aged lesbian woman and it left me feeling so much.. the acting by Madhuri and Simone is stellar. I'm only sad we didn't get more scenes between them.

This is the reprised version. The original version is also on YouTube and both are lovely 💚

youtube

2. Shubh Mangal Zada Savdhaan - Raakh by Arjit Singh

I think this entire playlist is just going to be of songs that make me ache. Please do read the English translation of Raakh if possible. The lyrics are pure love and pain and really showcase the pain queer couples go through and how they have to fight tooth and nail for their love.

youtube

3. Couple of mirrors - Immortality by Zhang Nan

This song makes my heart ache. It is soft like a lullaby yet there's such pain. Simply heavenly PLUS it's sung by the very actress who plays the lead role of You Yi! And the show? Amazing! The whole old era vibe and the bond between our two ladies was killer (given that one of them is a literal killer lol) Love you Yan Wei and You Yi 💚

youtube

4. KinnPorsche The Series - Contradict by Season Five

Another song that reduces me to tears. It's stuck with me for so long and yet I couldn't bear myself to listen to it for a while there. That's how much it made me hurt.

youtube

5. We Best Love - Blue Lover by YU and Unbreakable love by Eric

Don't ask me to choose. I love both these songs. Just.. Just go listen to them 😢😍

youtube

Well here comes an end to the literal cry fest. Hope you all check out the movies and shows. Enjoooyyyy and don't forget to carry some tissues 😙😙😙

Tagging @fanshipper1412 @therealblessedaffliction @vvitcherys and anyone else who wants to take this up 😄💚

The scene: My partner and I squealing while we watch Maja Ma (a 2022 Bollywood movie starring Madhuri Dixit)

Meanwhile, inside me: Sapphic panic seeps perilously through me as I embody the sheer desi pain of being so out that I could potentially faint at the thought of my entire family and society ostracizing me for being just as queer and gay as the whole Hindu pantheon

Queerness in Indian Media

↳Film: MAJA MA (2022, Hindi) dir. ANAND TIWARI

Maja Ma follows Pallavi Patel (Madhuri Dixit), a closeted lesbian who gave up her beloved, Kanchan (Simone Singh), decades ago and has since become a devoted mother, housewife, and adored member of her community. While making preparations for her son's (Ritwik Bhowmik) wedding, however, Pallavi is outed to the entire town--and subsequently must deal with the consequences to herself, her former beloved, and her family.

Madhuri Dixit discusses her role in this movie, how movies like this are more possible now because of OTT streaming, and the "unexpected reactions" to the story here.

Madhuri Dixit discusses this movie coming from "a place of love", wanting the LGBTQ community to "feel seen", and "accepting people for who they are" here.

The actress Madhuri Dixit has been in multiple gay and gay-coded media, both as a supportive character and as the gay character herself. She has also been supportive in real life of the LGBTQ community.

#bollywood #maja ma #queerness in indian media #I love how in every interview they're like 'so was it difficult to accept? were you afraid? were you nervous? did you hesitate?'#and every time she INSTANTLY is like 'no not at all. I loved the script. it is a story that needs to be told.'#queen of the gays!!#also if I had a dollar for every time gajraj rao plays the confused husband/father in a movie with gay people I'd have two dollars #which isn't much but it's funny that it's happened twice #anyway I have mixed feelings about some of the side stuff in this movie and the ending felt incomplete and too safe #but I understand that they already took such a big risk with her saying 'lesbian' outright rather than just coding #and then kanchan being gender non conforming in the past #which by the way. that moment during the dance when pallavi accepts that part of her too...[lies down]#it's so rare to see gnc people even in gay media so it was good.#which is why I had to include it in the gifset

I never thought I'd live to see the day Madhuri Dixit plays a LESBIAN in a Bollywood movie

#the amount of times they even said the word it was like an out of body experience #ive always loved her movies but given the popularity she has and in india mate shes the best #madhuri dixit #maja ma

Kanchan's love for Pallavi.❤️

The hurt in her eyes as she confronts her after 30yrs. Of how she is always attentive & protective of her. And to finally have Pallavi admit that even in the next life she doesn't need to be a man to be with her. Just Kanchan. Only Kanchan.

sometimes desi OTT is a gift that keeps on giving. first we got THE madhuri dixit playing a lesbian character, and now we have THE sharmila tagore playing a bisexual character? we love to see it.

#maja ma #gulmohar #madhuri dixit #sharmila tagore #both the movies were a little meh but women??? yes.#vi.txt #Bollywood #Desi
