Chokher Bali<\/b><\/i> (Bengali<\/a>: \u099a\u09cb\u0996\u09c7\u09b0 \u09ac\u09be\u09b2\u09bf<\/span>) (lit.<\/abbr> sand in the eye, fig.<\/abbr> constant irritant) is a Bengali language<\/a> drama film<\/a> based on the novel Chokher Bali<\/a><\/i> by Rabindranath Tagore<\/a>. It was directed by Rituparno Ghosh<\/a> in 2003 and stars Aishwarya Rai<\/a> as Binodini and Raima Sen<\/a> as Ashalata. Ashalata and Binodini refer to each other as Chokher Bali<\/i>. The other major characters are played by Prosenjit Chatterjee<\/a> as Mahendra, Lily Chakravarty<\/a> as Rajlakshmi, the mother of Mahendra, Tota Roy Chowdhury<\/a> as Behari, Rajlakshmi’s adopted son and Swastika Mukherjee<\/a> in a cameo<\/a> role. The film was later dubbed into Hindi and was released internationally in that language.<\/p>\n

The book, Binodini, is the story of a young woman, who is left to her own devices when her sickly husband dies soon after they are married. She returns to her village and lives there for a couple of months until she sees one of her relations passing by there on her way to somewhere else. Binodini hails the woman and the two soon agree that it would be best if Binodini came to live with the woman and her son, Mahendra (who, by the way, was one of the first to see Binodini’s photo when she was unwed and up for grabs yet refused her on account of his being “unready for marriage”). Now, when the two arrive the woman’s son and his new bride are in the throes of passion, constantly sneaking off to be alone together; this infatuation does not last long, however, when Mahendra begins to see that his wife’s friend, Binodini, is more his type.<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n
