Madam Chief Minister: Richa Chadha is damn good in the interesting trailer

Madam Chief Minister: Richa Chadha is damn good in the interesting trailer

By Murtuza Iqbal

Politics is surely an interesting subject, but not many Hindi filmmakers like to explore the concept of politics on the big screen. In the past, there have been movies made around politics (Sarkar, Raajneeti, etc.), but they are very few.


Now, Subhash Kapoor is all set to get a political drama on the big screen titled Madam Chief Minister. The movie revolves around a Dalit girl who enters politics and becomes Chief Minister.

A few days ago, the makers had announced the release date of the film and today, the trailer of the movie has been unveiled. Richa took to Twitter to share the trailer.

She posted, “This revolution is only getting started!  Get ready for my upcoming movie #MadamChiefMinister. Movie releasing on 22nd January. Trailer out now, tune in now - https://bit.ly/MCM-Trailer @saurabhshukla_s #ManavKaul @TSeries #BhushanKumar #KrishanKumar @subkapoor @KangraTalkies.”

The trailer of the film is interesting and keeps us engaged throughout those 3 minutes 9 seconds. The dialogues are the highlight of the trailer. In a scene, Richa mouths a dialogue, ‘Main kunwari ho, tez katari ho, par main tumhari ho’. The actress is damn good in the trailer and looks perfect for the part.

Madam Chief Minister also stars Saurabh Shukla, Manav Kaul, and Akshay Oberoi, and all the three actors leave a mark in the trailer. The movie is slated to release on 22nd January 2021.

None of the new Bollywood films have done well at the box office in India till now. It will be interesting to see whether people will step into cinemas to watch Richa Chadha starrer Madam Chief Minister.

Rami Malek and Indira Varma star in The Old Vic’s Oedipus adaptation

The Old Vic in London has unveiled its latest production, a fresh adaptation of Sophocles’ timeless tragedy Oedipus, featuring Academy Award winner Rami Malek and Olivier Award winner Indira Varma in the lead roles. The play, which runs until March 29, 2025, promises to be a gripping reimagining of the ancient Greek tale, blending drama, dance, and music under the co-direction of Matthew Warchus and choreographer Hofesh Shechter.

Malek takes on the role of Oedipus, the king determined to save his city from a devastating plague by uncovering the truth behind the murder of his predecessor, King Laius. Varma plays Jocasta, Oedipus’ wife, whose connection to the unfolding tragedy adds layers of complexity to the story. The production also features a strong supporting cast, including Nicholas Khan as Creon, Joseph Mydell as the Corinthian, Cecilia Noble as Tiresias, and Nicholas Woodeson as the Shepherd. The Hofesh Shechter Company’s dancers bring a different energy to the stage, strengthening the emotional intensity of the whole narrative.
