Nelson's Vandre follows the life of Nelson Rodrigues, an East Indian, one of the original inhabitants of Bandra, Mumbai. Nelson has seen Vandre (Bandra's old name) grow from a sleepy fishing village to a coveted suburb where famous Bollywood stars stay. Though Vandre is his, he feels a certain disconnect from the place as it has changed much too rapidly in a way he doesn't fully comprehend. This gentrification of certain areas in India's most populated city comes at a cost. His story runs in parallel with the story of Arathi, a struggling, migrant writer. Her battle with existential angst, depression, the inability to get published resides gently by the structured discipline of Nelson's struggle. Together, they make Vandre what it is today. |
