New Independent Film “The Perfect Woman” Explores Life, Love and Romance in a Contemporary World

gi_press3 Is there such a thing as a perfect woman? Husband and wife movie-making duo Marvel and Subhra Gima beg this very question in their ground-breaking debut feature film “The Perfect Woman.” In the new independent movie, viewers dive headlong into the complex topics of love, marriage, and sex as seen through the eyes of a young Asian couple on the road toward wedded bliss.

Never before portrayed on the big screen, “The Perfect Woman” tells the story of Nisha and Suraj who are deeply in love but hold vastly contradictory views concerning marriage and love. Suraj is a traditionalist; conservative and conventional, he personifies the logical coherence with which he performs his daily work as a software professional. Conversely, energetic and upbeat Nisha exemplifies a veritable fun-loving and free attitude towards life.

While she is certain of her love for Suraj, Nisha is deterred by his structured view of marriage. Despite these clear contrasts, their love story unfolds until Nisha’s world is rocked by a sudden, life-changing event. Torn between romanticism and reality, the young pair struggle to come to terms with the fact that Nisha may, in the end, not be the perfect woman for Suraj.

While love stories are boundless in Hollywood, this particular story has yet to be told in such a poignant and vivid manner, says Subhra Gima. “The Perfect Woman presents a subject that a lot of women who live in the darkness of different countries of the world are not aware of,” she says.

A bevy of young Hollywood stars round out the movie’s cast, including lead actors Ahmed Lucan and Sharlene Merchant. Soundtrack lyrics are entirely by the director himself Marvel Gima and are set over music recorded by Shaan, one of India’s most well-known and popular Bollywood singers.

“The Perfect Woman” was professionally assembled by SM Productions, the company created by Marvel and Subhra Gima specifically for the film.
