The Last Color seems like a ‘showcase Indian film’, the sort that the festival circuit in the West easily laps up. The film highlights a few societal ills specific to India, against the lavishly ethnic backdrop of Benaras. Indian exotica finds visual expression in every imaginable hue in the story from the wanton joy of Holi to the exploitation of widows. For the right international feel, perhaps, the third word of the film’s title has been suitably Americanised.
The film marks the directorial debut of Vikas Khanna, widely recognised as a top chef and Michelin star-winning restaurateur. Khanna is an author, too, and he has adapted the film from his book of the same name. I haven’t read the book. Going by the film, he could brush up his storytelling skills.

STORY: Equality and respect for widows in society, their participation in festivals and removal of discrimination on the basis of caste, class, gender or sexual orientation set in 1989 Banaras, renowned chef Vikas Khanna’s social drama ‘The Last Color’ addresses the need for inclusion and putting humanity before obsolete and unfair customs and traditions.
REVIEW: Too many cooks spoil the broth and sometimes excessive ingredients, too. The idiom can’t be more relevant for Michelin star chef-humanitarian and now filmmaker Vikas Khanna, who infuses too many issues in his directorial debut. His film could have perhaps made a bigger impact as a short film as opposed to a feature film which keeps going in circles only to meet a moving but predictable end.
