This movie delves into the depths of female nude posers mind and difficulties she faces. It's not an entertainer but an eye opener.

The movie with the great story and great visual specially give you goose bumps at the ending, water use as metaphor every where in the film. If you love dark grey blueish movie then you will love the colour and mood of the film. From composition point of view director put the subject mostly in the centre instead of like left or right (rules of thirds) which we see mostly in all the film.
deserves more than 10

I came across the international cut while browsing and the title piqued my interest. It is a provocative title and the plot about the life of real life nude models in the famed art colleges of india made me wonder how will it be portrayed. It is with these thoughts that I settled back and watched NUDE.
The movie blew my mind. It is one of the finest films ever to come out of India and on further research I found that the Director Ravi Jadhav is one of the finest of Marathi Cinema.
The camera work is outstanding and it makes you feel the anxiety, shyness and also the mixed feelings of shame and pride that the models undergo. The entire movie is layered and the camera work peels it layer by layer. Mind you not even one scene in the movie looks obscene or sensual.
Now the two actors Kalyani Mulay and Chhaya Kadam deserve a salute for pulling off one of the most difficult roles. In our society and movies nudity is shied away mainly because it is taboo and also it makes it easier for the film to be watched by the entire spectrum of our population. In this setting making a movie where you are completely naked and the camera staring at you for long would have been extremely difficult for the actors. They are two ladies that need to be watched as each one of them have given a powerhouse performance.
In conclusion a movie that will be watched repeatedly and one which will in the coming years become a case study in film schools and a cult film.
Amazing film

Nude: Chitraa, Unveiling strength
pmrmuzammil30 May 2024
Ravi Jadhav's *Nude: Chitraa* transcends the sensationalism often associated with nudity in cinema. It's a powerful film that explores themes of social pressures, female agency, and the resilience of the human spirit.
The narrative hinges on Yamuna (Kalyanee Mulay), a woman trapped in a cycle of poverty and domestic abuse. Driven by a fierce love for her son, she makes a bold decision: to become a nude model for art students. This unconventional choice throws her world into disarray. Society frowns upon her profession, and even her own son wrestles with conflicting emotions.
Chitraa's brilliance lies in its nuanced portrayal of Yamuna's journey. Initially apprehensive and fearful, she gradually sheds these inhibitions. The camera lingers not on her physical form, but on the emotional transformation she undergoes. Nudity becomes a symbol of liberation, a shedding of societal constraints and a reclamation of her body.
The film doesn't shy away from the challenges Yamuna faces. The disapproving whispers, the judgmental stares - they all paint a picture of a society grappling with notions of modesty and female empowerment. Here, *Nude: Chitraa* functions as a social critique, prompting viewers to question ingrained prejudices.
In conclusion, *Nude: Chitraa* is a powerful and thought-provoking film. It sheds light on the struggles of a woman defying societal expectations and celebrates her strength and resilience. By moving beyond the sensational, the film offers a nuanced exploration of female agency, social pressures, and the power of human will.
