Self indulgent waste of time
by anushasrini β€’ 2005-04-04
3/10

"I thought Meenaxi was a self indulgent waste of time. The movie was poorly edited and artistic for the sake of being artistic rather being incorporated into the plot. Apart from the main protagonist, the quality of acting was mediocre and dialog was pithy. One of the two bright sparks was the choreography of the musical pieces, which were acrobatic and classical. Most importantly, they were a refreshing change from the usual bollywood crass belly gyrations. The other, positive (which is no reflection on the film makers) are the locations. It is hard to miss the beauty of cities like Jaisalmer ..."

πŸ’‘ Did You Know?

Artist and director M.F. Hussain had originally envisaged Madhuri Dixit for the titular role, but as she was unavailable, Tabu (I) was approached next for the role of the enigma and she accepted it.
