It is a thriller about two women – The first is Kajarya played by Meena Hooda, a woman who lives in the village and has the job of killing babies and the other is an opportunistic journalist from New Delhi played by Ridhima Sud.[5] Cast
SoundtrackThe film’s music has been scored by Richard Horowitz, who is a Golden Globe Award winner and an Academy Award nominee. The film was one of the three Indian films selected to be premiered at the 10th Dubai International Film Festival, 2013 that celebrated the 100 years of Indian cinema.[6] ReleaseKajarya had its World Premiere at the 16th Dubai International Film Festival held during December 6 to December 14 in the year 2013.[7] In India the film was released on 4 December 2015.[8]Critical receptionDeborah Young of The Hollywood Reporter found Kajarya to be "disturbing and engrossing" and said that, "A chilling social study of infanticide is brought to life through the viewpoint of two women."[9] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave the film a rating of 4 out of 5 saying that, "Kajarya is a powerful and important film that finds vestiges of genuine humanity in an area of impenetrable darkness. But it offers no false hopes. This film is for discerning audiences who have a stomach for the bitter truth."[10] Mohar Basu of The Times of India gave the film a rating of 2.5 out of 5 and said that, "Kajarya is a lethal film that has its heart in the right place. It is both engrossing and abhorrent, addressing the issue of female infanticide with an astute understanding of the subject."[11] Namrata Joshi of The Hindu praised the director for her earnest and sincere effort but also criticized the film for being low on intensity. The critic said that, "There are many stories that lie hidden in the depressing newspaper headlines. The art is in giving them a compelling, emotional shape on screen. Madhureeta Anand succeeds but marginally so in Kajarya."[12] Shubha Shetty-Saha of Mid-Day gave the film a rating of 3.5 out of 5 and said that, "Dark, straight narration with excellent performances work for the film. It is a sincere attempt to bring forth an issue that is very much a part of this country and the one we must be really worried about."[13] Mehul S Thakkar of Deccan Chronicle gave the film a rating of 2 out of 5 and said that, "The film is not easy to the eye and is disturbing". The critic praised the acting performances of all actors but criticized the inconsistent screenplay saying that it made the film "less engaging".[14] Awards and accoladesThe film was seen by Eve Ensler (writer of The Vagina Monologues) and was greatly appreciated by her. The film has an all-new star cast of trained actors and explores the issue of female foeticide and related women’s issues.
The Hollywood reporter review said, "Kajarya is both disturbing and engrossing as it plunges the viewer into the heart of darkness in an Indian village. Director Madhureeta Anand is a storyteller who interweaves the lives of two women – one modern, the other ancient." ActivismMadhureeta Anand has consistently used her influence and films to advocate causes related to gender, sexuality and child rights. Her film Kajarya was backed by 21 NGOs in India and abroad. The film has become a tool for activism and to provoke discussion. The film is slated to be screened in the Parliament. Kajarya is now being quoted as an example of the coming together of social causes and entertainment. She frequently writes columns and articles voicing her views on these subjects. She has formed “The Two Way Street Trust” to bridge the gap between social issues and entertainment.
