My Wife's Murder goes beyond
sex
Yet another Factory release hits the marquee this
week. My Wife's Murder starring Anil Kapoor, Suchitra Krishnamurthy, Boman Irani
and Nandana Sen seems like an unusual film.
The film, obviously about a wife's murder,
initially had two endings. The first was called Jaan Bujhke, where Anil Kapoor's
character kills his wife on purpose. The other was called Galti Se, where Kapoor
kills his wife by mistake.
The Telugu version of the film sparked off a
controversy, and Ram Gopal Varma decided to do away with the two Hindi versions.
Now, on the eve of the release of My Wife's Murder,
RGV talks to Subhash K Jha about the film.
Do you think there would be protests against the
film's theme of killing one's spouse?
The Telugu version did spark off protests. But the
difference between the Telugu and Hindi versions is that in the former, the
husband purposely planned his wife's death. The tagline -- Ever Wished Your Wife
Was Dead? -- got the moralists uptight. The Hindi version is
different. Here, the husband accidently kills the wife.
You had earlier planned to release two versions of
the same story.
Galti Se and Jaan Bujhke were like two sides of a
coin. I thought two endings for the same story was an idea that had never been
done before. But finally, we abandoned it. The idea of making this film is to
show the traumatic emotional journey the husband goes through after he kills his
wife.
It looks like yet another film from your
Factory.
Don't be so hasty in dismissing it just because I
haven't directed My Wife's Murder. It's as worthy of enormous eyeballs as
Sarkar. It's the first production where the story idea is mine.
Did you ever get murderous thoughts about your
wife?
When I conceived the story, I wasn't married. So
the idea was original. Forget about killing one's wife, one wishes many times
that one weren't married at all. It's to do with being nagged, incessantly told
what to and what not to do. No one likes that.

When I first met him to narrate the story, he
immediately wanted to produce it. We plan to produce more films
together.
My Wife's Murder is being pitched against Suneel
Darshan's Barsaat.
I know nothing about Barsaat. I don't think two or
even three films affect the box office. But I like to see women getting drenched
in the rain. So to that extent, I like Barsaat. But if the women in the rain are
accompanied by a family drama then, sorry, that isn't my scene.
Does My Wife's Murder have women in the
rain?
It isn't that kind of a film. It's got a different
feel and flavour. It's a film that goes beyond sex and the bed -- straight into
the head.
Why did you cast Suchitra Krishnamurthy and Nandana
Sen in the film?
Because they looked like the characters to me. I
met Suchitra through her husband Shekhar Kapur who's a close friend of mine. She
had a strong personality. I remember she had called me after Daud and said it
was a horrible film. That's when I decided I'd one day take revenge on her by
casting her in one of my films.
Nandana Sen was my director Jijy Philip's choice. I
think he saw her in a commercial.
Where does Jijy Philip come from?
He assisted me in Bhoot. He used to work in a
television channel before. He came to interview me, joined me as an assistant
and never went back to his work. One day, I narrated my story idea and he
decided to work on it for three months.
Why would I want to see a small thriller from your
production house after seeing the big Sarkar?
I don't think cinema is big or small. It's just
good or bad. I feel the emotional hookline of My Wife's Murder and the sudden
eruption of violence between a married couple are things everyone would identify
with. And the way Jijy has shot the film is truly international.
