I<\/span>n <\/p>Selection Day<\/span><\/i>,<\/span> Netflix<\/span><\/a>\u2019s second Indian original \u2013 an adaptation of Aravind Adiga\u2019s eponymous 2016 novel \u2013 55-year-old Ratna Pathak Shah plays Nellie, an atypical principal of a Mumbai school, looking to put its sports scholarship to good use. The series, which streams on December 28, revolves around two teenage brothers from Madhya Pradesh who have been singularly raised by their authoritarian father into becoming cricketing prodigies. <\/span>\n\nLike this year\u2019s <\/span>Sacred Games<\/span><\/i> that delved deep into Mumbai\u2019s underbelly of corrupt police officers, deviant babas, and all-powerful gangsters, <\/span>Selection Day<\/span><\/i> concerns itself with the city\u2019s other prime obsession: <\/span>cricket<\/span><\/a>. That also means that the series \u2013 just like its predecessor \u2013 invariably is centred around a male-dominated universe. Its cast includes the two teenagers (Mohammad Samad and Yash Dholye), their nemesis (Karanvir Malhotra), their father (Rajesh Tailang), a disgraced cricket coach (Mahesh Manjrekar), a God (Shiv Pandit), and a young business tycoon (Akshay Oberoi). <\/span>\n\nYet Shah\u2019s Nellie stands out, and not merely because she is the only <\/span>female character<\/span><\/a> supporting <\/span>Selection Day\u2019s<\/span><\/i> universe. Her personality is one that Shah, an actor whose versatility far outpaces her roles, exploits to the hilt. <\/span>\n\nIn one of her introduction scenes, a middle-aged Nellie rolls a <\/span>marijuana joint<\/span><\/a>, unanimously considered a largely male addiction in Indian cinema \u2013 unless the intention is to signal a young, sexually permissive, \u201cwoke\u201d female character. In another, she delivers the tart, \u201cNormally, I\u2019d welcome this attention by a man half my age still in possession of his own hair\u201d to one of the male leads in such trademark Pathak Shah style, that it is bound to induce a cackle. Nellie is no cardboard grieving widow: She is a loyal friend, a strong-willed headmistress who also teaches science to a class of enthusiastic students, and talks to the statue of her dead husband (in an obvious harkback to her scene-stealing turn in <\/span>Jaane Tu\u2026 Ya Jaane Na<\/span><\/i>). <\/span>\n

Her personality is one that Shah, an actor whose versatility far outpaces her roles, exploits to the hilt.<\/blockquote>\nHowever, even a veteran like Pathak Shah, whose reputation alone merits such well-rounded characters is acutely aware that Nellie is an exception. \u201cAt the same age, my <\/span>mother<\/span><\/a> (actor Dina Pathak) wasn\u2019t getting the kind of roles that I am getting today. The poor woman played Hindi movie moms all her life,\u201d she tells me during the course of a meeting. By her own admission, she was instantly attracted to how \u201csmartly written\u201d her character was in the show, \u201cIt\u2019s fantastic considering the age I am.\u201d Yet Pathak Shah, who made her foray into Netflix with <\/span>Love Per Square Foot<\/span><\/i>,<\/span> playing Blossom, a widowed Christian mother, is synonymous with layered, evocative performances that acquire a fandom of their own. Just in the last two years, Pathak Shah boasts of more envious acting resume than any of her younger peers. <\/span>\n\nIn <\/span>Love Per Square Foot<\/span><\/i>, she is a hoot as the mother who reluctantly agrees to her daughter\u2019s decision to <\/span>marry<\/span><\/a> a Hindu man, parading her impeccable comic timing. In last year\u2019s <\/span>Lipstick Under My Burkha<\/span><\/i>, Pathak Shah delivered the year\u2019s finest performance (and Hindi cinema\u2019s unforgettable orgasm moment) as \u201cBuaji\u201d, a middle-aged spinster in the throes of her sexual awakening. A few months after that, she was on stage for <\/span>The Father<\/span><\/i>, that had a month-long run at two of Mumbai\u2019s premier venues. In the play \u2013 a portrait of a mind held hostage by illness \u2013 Pathak Shah played Naseeruddin Shah\u2019s daughter with such conviction that you forgot that he\u2019s her husband. And then, she also reprised her career-defining performance as Maya Sarabhai, the snooty mother-in-law in the second season of <\/span>Sarabhai vs Sarabhai<\/span><\/i>.<\/span>\n\nA fiercely opinionated actress, Pathak Shah is known to not mince her words, whether it was while <\/span>panning<\/span><\/a> Golmaal 3<\/span><\/i> \u2013 a film she starred in \u2013 or when she admits to me that writing roles for women is generally a difficult task for Indian writers, \u201cOur standard is the male experience. The <\/span>female experience has never been a part of the national discourse\u201d she reasons. She attributes the recent wave of nuanced older female characters in an industry afflicted with ageism to the new crop of writers as well as changing tastes of the audience. \u201cFemale characters are slowly becoming individuals rather than being <\/span>stereotypes<\/span><\/a>. Seema Pahwa has done such wonderful parts as have Supriya Pathak and Neena Gupta. We\u2019re all approximately the same age and all of us are getting much more interesting parts than we\u2019d do usually.\u201d<\/span>\n\nPathak Shah, one of the industry\u2019s rare medium-agnostic actors, is partly right. This year alone, Bollywood witnessed a resurgence of roles and extended screen time for older women actors. There was Manisha Koirala playing the disgruntled housewife in <\/span>Lust Stories<\/span><\/i>; the memorable Yamini Das who gave a face to the <\/span>emotional<\/span><\/a> burden of small-town married women in <\/span>Sui Dhaaga<\/span><\/i>; Shefali Shah romancing in <\/span>Once Again<\/span><\/i>; Tabu\u2019s unforgettable turn as the femme fatale in <\/span>Andhadhun<\/span><\/i>; Gitanjali Rao\u2019s grieving mother in <\/span>October<\/span><\/i>, and Neena Gupta\u2019s tender portrayal of a middle-aged mother battling a late pregnancy in <\/span>Badhaai Ho<\/span><\/i>. <\/span>\n
She attributes the recent wave of nuanced older female characters in an industry afflicted with ageism to the new crop of writers as well as changing tastes of the audience.<\/blockquote>\nYet, in a year that has also produced 110 films, the <\/span>representation<\/span><\/a> of older women actors ends up accounting for a paltry 9.9 per cent. It hardly offers a cause to celebrate. The scenario isn\u2019t any better in the digital space, which, unlike films, isn\u2019t driven by commercial box-office limitations. Even then, some of the year\u2019s most popular Indian web shows <\/span>\u2013<\/span> Sacred Games, Mirzapur, Little Things, Ghoul<\/span><\/i> \u2013 hardly have had older women in substantial roles.<\/span>\n\nWhen I ask Pathak Shah this question that I assume she must have already asked herself, she remains <\/span>optimistic<\/span><\/a>. <\/span>But it comes with a caveat, \u201cThe way in which women characters are written in the future will likely improve provided we are not forced back into the medieval age socially. India seems ready to do that also. Toh kya malum? Kal main ghunghat odh ke ghar mein baithi hungi.\u201d Nope. Not Ratna Pathak Shah. <\/span>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
