SFR: Kalki Koechlin in Dev D

I am pathetically in love with the barely legal look she sported as Leni, an adventurous school girl who finds herself the unwitting star of a MMS scandal. She looked so young, and innocent, and childlike with her big, big eyes, huge lips, and un-made up face. If I didn't know any better, I would've assumed she was a teenager.

Acting-wise, I thought she did a credible job. I liked her character the best. That may or may not have to do with the fact that for the 2002 Devdas, while I envied Paro, I was Team Chandramukhi('cuz of Madz).

Dev D(2009)

Kalki Koechlin's mouth is the only reason I want to see this flick. Seriously. If she possessed your average, everyday-looking mouth, I wouldn't care. But because I am so easily fascinated by the weirdest things, I want to check out Dev D just to look at and obsess over her lips and plain-but-in-an-interesting-way face. I don't care how well she acts. I don't care if her voice is dubbed or if she speaks heavily accented Hindi. I don't really care about the other two actors, although Abhay Deol isn't bad-looking. IIRC, he's kinda flabby, but that's okay. Who knows? I may end up liking it in spite of my initial "Eh, whatever"-ness.

It's currently available from Induna, but not Nehaflix. Why is that? Am I going to have to start patronizing Induna for Hindi movies? Hmmm...that's not a bad idea, actually. I just have to buy enough films to justify the shipping and handling charges. I should make a list and order them all at once.
