(PIC removed on request)
The story of Pankh is similar to the story of child actor Ahsaas Channa (remember the kid in Ramu’s Vastu Shastra/Phoonk….she is not she, we mean, he is always dressed up as a girl. His dad filed a case against the mother for exploiting Ahsaas. For dressing him up as a girl to get more work in films. Nobody had any clue about his gender till the matter reached court)
In similar way, Pankh is about a boy who is treated as a girl by his mother since childhood and how he becomes confused with his sexuality as he grows up. It stars Bipasha Basu, Lilette Dubey, Mahesh Manjrekar and Maradona Rebello in lead role. The film is directed by debutant Sudipto Chattopadhyay and is produced by Sanjay Gupta’s White Feather Films.
This film has been making lot of headlines recently. From nude scenes to gay kiss to confused sexuality, it got it all. Here is the first look of Pankh.
The film is produced by Sanjay
Gupta and directed by debutant Sudipto Chattopadhyay. Inspired by the real life story of child artist Ahsaas Channa, Pankh is the story of a child actor whose mother dresses him up as a girl for his film roles. Years after becoming an adult, the boy is still confused about his sexuality.
Bipasha Basu, Mahesh Manjrekar and Lilette Dubey also star in it. The film was in news recently because of a nude scene featuring Maradona Rebello. To read more about the nude scene and the controversy click here.
And it also features a gay kiss between debutant actor Maradona Rebello and Amit Purohit. To know more about it, click here.
BTW, do check out the first name on the poster carefully. Anything odd ? If we are not blind, its looks like SANJAY DUTT on the poster of Pankh! How, what,where,why,when, WTF ? Have they patched up ? No, not for sure. Then ? We are clueless. If you got any dope, do let us know.
Two men kissing! In Dostana’s climax, it was an easy guess, a fake kiss! The camera moved 360 degree but missed the lips. In Pankh, debutant actor Maradona Rebello smooches Amit Purohit (see pic).
And the good news is Censor Board has passed the scene. Gay kiss in hindi film! Its surely a sign of changing times, because in india, homsexuality is still in closet.

……thats the problem. Nude scenes always make news in India…no, make it anywhere. Its the same. And this one is about Pankh.
The film has been in news since it was announced. Its inspired by the story of child actor Ahsaas Channa.

His dad filed a case against the mother for exploiting Ahsaas…making him dress up like a girl to get more work in films. Nobody had any clue about his gender till the matter reached court)
In similar way, Pankh is about a man who is treated as a woman by his mother since childhood and how, subsequently, he is confused about his sexuality. It stars Bipasha Basu, Lilette Dubey, Mahesh Manjrekar and Maradona Rebello (in lead role) and its directed by Sudipto Chattopadhya.
According to Mumbaimirror, the problem is regarding a nude scene in the film which Censor Board is not willing to certify. In the scene, the male actor (Maradona) is completely nude in front of his mother (Lillete Dubey) and his rear is exposed to the audience.
The film is produced by Sanjay Gupta and he has been asked to edit out the scene. But Guptaji is not is not willing to do so as he thinks the scene is crucial for the film.
