Jassi's Mother
A gawky teen's wish comes when she turns into a sultry 25-year-old overnight in this racy fairy tale. Tired of lonely nights, Jassi (Payal Rohatgi) is shocked to discover her sexy new body -- and she's not alone: Best friend Rocky and rival Monica (Shivani) have also been miraculously transformed into young adults. There's no stopping Jassi and her friends as they hit the clubs, step out in seductive outfits and try their best to act their age.
With this ecological drama, Assam’s leading director Jahnu Barua continues exploring the conflict between corrupt state politics and a determined individual (cf. Halodiya Choraye Baodhan Khaye, 1987). The forest ranger confronts illegal timber merchants and contractors on behalf of impoverished tribals. The honest ranger’s activities get him into trouble and he is constantly transferred from one post to another, to the annoyance of his wife who wants him to settle down and look after their ailing child. Eventually she supports her husband’s fight and the tribals realise they need weapons to defend themselves against rapacious outsiders.
