''Antar Mahal'' ((ベンガル語:অন্তরমহল ''ôntormohol'')) is a 2005 Indian Bengali film, directed by Rituparno Ghosh, based on a short story by the name 'Protima' by the Bengali author Tarasankar Bandyopadhyay. Jackie Shroff plays the zamindar. Other lead roles include Rupa Ganguly and Soha Ali Khan. Abhishek Bachchan plays a supporting role in this film. ==Plot== The story takes place towards the end of the 19th century in Bengal. Bhubaneswar Chowdhury (Jackie Shroff) is a rich and oppressive Zamindar (Landlord). He is planning to please the British so that they bestow on him the Raibahadur title. There are quite a few contenders and so something unique has to be done, so he decides to put Queen Victoria's face on the body of the Goddess Durga whose clay idol is made every year for Durga Pooja. On the other hand he also wants an heir and since he blames the failure on his elder wife Mahamaya (Rupa Ganguly) he marries again, the much younger Jashomati (Soha Ali Khan). Both these wives compete against each other in an ego struggle. In his pursuit for a son, Bhubaneswar tries everything from trying to force himself on Jashomati while a priest reads hymns for conception near the bed, ordering Mahamaya, in a drugged state, to fulfill the carnal desires of five sexually deprived Brahmin priests. Although she luckily escapes the fate due to the untimely ending, Jashomati, while in her traumatised and lonely state, gets physically drawn towards a young sculptor (Abhishek Bachchan). It's in this centre of all this that the sculptor makes his masterpiece, his tribute, and seals Jashomati's ultimate fate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Antarmahal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
