Firstly, for the ones who have seen the trailer and also Sooni Taraporevala’s documentary by the same name, know where the story begins and what the end is. A coming-of-age film about two male ballet dancers, Sooni Taraporevala was so inspired by these boys that she told their story twiceTake a closer look at the films that have dominated box offices in recent times, and you’ll spot class struggle being a common theme. Starting from a high beat hip hop track to ending on the tunes of ballet, the music in Yeh Ballet has its own journey. Crunching it into 2 hours did not do complete justice. “She coached the boys in the sense of bringing them up to a certain level in terms of the moves.” Manish Chauhan, being already trained in ballet, had to pretend to flub his early training. Destiny lands the two in a dance institute which is being run by people who create the facade of a dream and mint out money from people.
The class divide is prominent, but it is crunched to an extent that the lines have almost overshadowed. This also somewhere makes it look like the obstacles that come in their way are easily solved resulting to not being moved as much as it was meant to.Yeh Ballet is made out of conviction and is a story that needed to be told. Enter the world of ballet like Asif and Nishu do, learn to pronounce it and rise in the air. Set in the heart of Mumbai, Yeh Ballet is a real life story based on a documentary that the same director made two years ago, on two boys who made it to the international ballet scene from the slums. “I will never run out of inspiration in Bombay. Asif lives in a hovel in a slum in Mumbai’s Worli neighbourhood, while Nishu is from another slum settlement further down the coast in Bandra, where a temple, a cross and a mosque greet him on his way home every day. Jourdain also choreographed the classroom sequences.Neither Chauhan nor Bose has been in a movie before, but Taraporevala had faith in their abilities to deliver performances that would match their dance floor skills.
Having been a student of ballet in her younger days, she was fascinated by the story of Chauhan and Shah, who were at the time being trained by Ma’or at Ashley Lobo’s The Danceworx studio in Mumbai. All other including Vijay, Jim, Danish do their jobs as expected.The script of Yeh Ballet is rich and wholesome, and according to me enough for a mini series. As good an actor Vijay is he deserves all the mention for his dialogues. When you see Asif’s brother a pizza delivery guy being friends with the owner of a big dance company, or when Nishu become friends with a girl from a privileged family through dance, you see how normal it is to blur the boundaries. Pigs may fly and young men may clench their bottoms and unleash their inner potential, pirouetting against the skyline and then leaping right over it. It also addresses the class divide, the fight between the have nots, caste issues, gender norms and the oppression that is present.Sooni with her writing also tells you how closely connected this city is. Sooni Taraporevala (born 1957) is an Indian screenwriter, photographer and filmmaker who is best known as the screenwriter of Mississippi Masala, The Namesake and Oscar-nominated Salaam Bombay! We meet Asif (Achintya) a Muslim boy who spends most of his time in B-boying with his friends and is involved in small crimes that pay him for his survival. Sooni Taraporevala On Documenting Two Young Ballerinos Text by Huzan Tata The award-winning screenwriter’s VR documentary film, Yeh … “I was very particular that the ballet had to be correct,” she said. There are similarities between the fiction and non-fiction works, but also many differences. Also the dance form ballet comes with a gender constraint as it is looked at as a feminine form. I was so thrilled when we found this location in Bandra where there is a temple cheek-by-jowl with a statue of Christ and a masjid. But Sooni is clever to make you realize, blurring them isn’t enough. Talking about the film, Sooni said in a statement, “Yeh Ballet is inspired by the real story of two young boys who were determined and dreamt big.
