Akshaye Khanna and Richa Chadha - Section 375
This intense court room drama Section 375 deals with rape, will and consent. In the film, a celebrated Bollywood director Rohan Khurana stands accused by a female member of his crew, Anjali Dangle of having raped her at his residence. Directed by Ajay Bahl, the film stars Akshaye Khanna and Richa Chadha as two lawyers pitted against each other.
Keeping its focus intact on the story and script, Section 375 sets the mood and tone right from the beginning. Throughout the film, you can't decide on whose side you are. The narrative switches from victim to accused with your sympathy too moving like a pendulum. Section 375 gives a glimpse of societal shame that the victim has to undergo right from lodging FIR to medical checkup. The questions asked by the medical examiner to Anjali about ejaculation and penetration will make you cringe.
