Haryanvi | Landlord
Despite its humorous title, 'Baingan' is a sensitive and psychologically layered narrative rooted in Haryanvi folk life. The 90-minute film revolves around Radheshyam, a landlord dependent on rental income. The plot takes a significant turn when a tenant, a wrestler, refuses to pay rent and dismissively responds with “take brinjal” (baingan) instead. What begins as a trivial exchange gradually evolves into a profound conflict of dignity and self-worth, eventually escalating into a courtroom battle. The film transcends the issue of rent, focusing on deeper themes of self-respect and personal dignity.
