Hawas (“Lust”) is a Hindi movie released in 2004. Like another Bollywood movie, Murder, it is an adaptation of the American film Unfaithful (2002). Hawas was directed by Karan Razdan and stars Meghna Naidu, Shawar Ali and Tarun Arora.
Extra-marital affairs and marital discord seem to be the flavour of the season. However, there are two ways of treating the issue. The first one takes a serious, straight-out-of-life, realistic route, while the second rides on skin-show to depict relationships.
Karan Razdan’s HAWAS falls into the latter category. Influenced largely by Adrian Lyne’s UNFAITHFUL [2002; starring Richard Gere, Diane Lane, Oliver Martinez], Razdan peeps into the bedroom of three individuals and offers a story that has its share of loose ends, but it works eventually because of the generous dose of sex in the enterprise.
The USP of HAWAS is SEX. There’s skin show, there’re plenty of steamy scenes, there’s titillation – the content clearly justifies the title of the flick.
