The Ordinary Star
Nawazuddin Siddiqui is invited to study Ashok, the real inhabitant of the room the actor will occupy during the shoot of Star, Dibakar Banerjee’s short in Bombay Talkies (2013). The fiction director, the documentary crews, and the actor progressively shape the lead character of Bombay Talkies, Porandar Vithal. Ashok enriches this construction with his own life experiences. The Ordinary Star is a documentary that examines the nature and cost of the cinematic process, its invasiveness, its appetite to devour so that it can create, and the ceaseless search to live a life less ordinary.
