About The Desire: A Journey of a Woman
Gautami is an Indian Odissi Dancer whose passion in life is dance. Jai Leang is a rising Chinese painter whose paintings are highly influenced by Chinese culture. Jai is drawn to Gautami because of her grace and charm. She pays no attention to him; she doesn't believe in marriage after her father dumped her mother for another woman. Gautami travel worldwide for her shows; it's a deliberate move on her part, and she and Jai lose contact. Gary organises an exhibition of Jai's paintings in India where his search for Gautami begins. He locates her in a monastery. He pleads to make a portrait of her. That night turns out to be fateful.
Directed by R Sarath, The Desire: A Journey of a Woman leans on a strong ensemble — Shilpa Shetty Kundra, Jaya Prada, Xia Yu — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2011.
