right? So for us actors it becomes more important to watch porn and practice being in the moment. When you are enjoying porn there no other thought. Actually porn motivates you and when you achieve your dreams you achieve the best orgasm possible. Everything is larger than life in porn, including the main attractions. Yes, porn images are like dreams which you always want to achieve. Addiction is addiction it never goes away, that is why it is addiction. Today also if get a copy I bet you I will finish it quicker than the time I take to finish a Chetan Bhagat novel. I would say I am still addicted to Mastram. In your growing up years how addicted were you to Mastram? The only affordable means of entertainment was Mastram’s books. Let’s not forget, during the times when he started in the 1980s there was no television, mobile, the Internet not even the radio for common people. How can a writer of English porn have that effect on a person from India? Mastram was the people’s writer. Of course, Mastram is far better than all of them as erotica has a basic fundamental requirement that is a reader should be able to instantly relate to the situation so that the first word of the story transports him to that world to the extent that he or she becomes the character and experiences the erotic pleasures of what is written. Young people are now reading it through the Internet in some other form. Just to open up on this topic more, I think Mastram is just a metaphor for pornographic gratification. humare zamaane mein 50 paise ek din ke kiraye pe milti thi’ . The day the trailer was released my father called me and told me, ‘ Bahut acha laga trailer humne bhi bahut padhi hain yeh waali kitaabein. Ha, ha, ha! What can I say? I think every man between 70 and 18 must have read or heard specifically about Mastram. During these times when a film’s USP (unique selling point) is a heroine sporting a bikini or doing an item number in skimpy clothes with her bosom and derriere highlighted and considering the fact that this film is inspired by a real-life person who revolutionised and brought out hidden emotions of a man and women in Hindi porn literature, if there are sex scenes they are an integral part of this story and not by the demand of any producer or for some commercial reasons.ĭo you think Mastram influenced libidos all across North India?
MASTRAM MOVIE TRAILER SKIN
There is no vulgarity or sleaze or skin show or cleavage or bikini. Though it’s a film about a porn writer, it is dealt with in a very very intelligent way.
I don’t think there was anything wrong with it. But it was not just sex, it was more of loving making as it was between a husband and a wife making out after marriage. Yes, I was required to perform one such scene. The rest of society and people stopped existing for me the day I started doing theatre.ĭid you have to perform sex-related scenes? I am glad the people whom I am answerable to are only my parents and couple of close ones. An actor like me cannot afford the luxury of embarrassment. But embarrassment doesn’t have space in an actor’s life. What kind of scenes would there be? How were they going to shoot the porn angle? Would the end-product come across as a C-grade film as it had no big name attached to it? These were the concerns which came up after the initial excitement. Then it sunk into me that the film was about a porn writer.
When my director Akhilesh Jaiswal told me the idea that he wants to make a film on Mastram I was excited. Yes definitely there was a thought about how the script would turn out. Was there any embarrassment in accepting the role?Īctually, I think about the embarrassment now, I don’t think it was there. By the way I’ve been crowned for the best rendition of Mastram stories many times by my friends. So preparation for my character has been going on for the past 10 years. I also read Mastram for many years, so the words and subject were close to my life. We used to have sessions during which everyone got the opportunity to read at least a page and then it was easy to make out who is a better speaker and who can engage everyone with his monologue. It was considered to be quite helpful for an actor as it helps to improve your visualisation and imagination.
Honestly speaking, I didn’t have to read anything to prepare for the role as I had already read enough of Mastram’s porn during my theatre days in Delhi. How much of his porn writing did you read as preparation for your role? You play the legendary porn writer Mastram. MUMBAI: Theatre actor Rahul Bagga who plays the role of Hindi porn writer Mastram in the forthcoming bio-pic directed by Akhilesh Jaiswal answers sticky questions on the purpose of pornography.
