In the three decades since Smita Patil died � at the impossibly young age of thirty-one � she has unwaveringly been one of Indian cinema�s biggest icons. That is unusual enough for a �parallel cinema� actor, rendered the more remarkable in a career that spanned a mere ten years. Patil, one of the leading lights of the New Indian Cinema of the mid-1970s, has a body of work that would make veterans proud. Smita Patil: A Brief Incandescence tells her remarkable story, tracing it from her childhood to stardom, controversial marriage and untimely death. Her close friends remember �Smi� as outspoken and bindaas, not beyond hurling abuses or taking off on bikes on impromptu joyrides. Film-makers like Shyam Benegal and Jabbar Patel, or co-stars Om Puri and Shabana Azmi, talk about Patil�s dedication to her craft and her intuitive pursuit of that perfect take. From the difficult equation she shared with her mother, and her propensity for �wrong� relationships, about which she was always open unlike other stars of the time, this is a complex and honest exploration of Patil�s life. The book also includes a sharp critique of the films that defined they read like a roster of the best of New Indian Cinema: Bhumika, Mandi, Manthan, Umbartha, Bhavni Bhavai, Akaler Sandhane, Chakra, Chidambaram, Mirch Masala among them. Maithili Rao also studies Patil�s many unfortunate forays into mainstream commercial cinema. Incisive and insightful, Smita Patil: A Brief Incandescence is an invaluable addition to film studies in India, bringing alive an entire era when cinema in India was truly different. It is also the definitive biography of a rare talent and a haunting life. ISBN - 9789351775126
