Hina Khan bags a new film

Popular television actress Hina Khan, who is presently playing lead antagonist Komolika in the Star Plus show Kasautii Zindagii Kay, is gearing up to make her big screen debut very soon. Titled Lines, the women-centric movie went on the floors in 2018 and is now nearing completion.

As her debut film nears completion, Khan has announced her next film. Just like Lines, her second film will also be a woman-centric concept. It will be directed by well-known Bollywood director Vikram Bhatt.


“Vikram is a wonderful narrator and a person. We had a long chat about the film and we were clear about what to expect. I love the concept of the film and even heard some of the music, which is mind-blowing. And he is excited and keen about having me onboard, which boosts my morale. I feel lucky to have got this film,” said Hina Khan.

More details on the project are awaited.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
