Out of social media for a while, popular Indian cinema director Ram Gopal Varma sure knows how to make an entry with a bang. Releasing a trailer of his latest video starring American porn star Mia Malkova, he thwarted Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube users in frenzy. The trailer has amassed over 4 million views in just 6 days.
Yes, the film is named “God, Sex and Truth”, and is apparently Ram Gopal Varma’s initiative to get people to embrace and talk about sex as any other normal activity. “GST attempts to bring sex out in the open instead of hiding it under the bed sheets”, Varma says. I’ve always believed that power and sex are the only ultimate prime movers in life. Power has always been looked up to whereas sex is looked down upon. I found a common believer of this philosophy in Mia Malkova”, Varma says.
Malkova on Thursday tweeted, “Indian film maker Ram Gopal Varma shot a video with me in Europe titled God, Sex, and Truth. I will be the second adult star after Sunny Leone to be shot by an Indian feature film maker”.
The 3:27 trailer titled as “A philosophical treatise of Mia Malkova” opens with a Freud’s saying – Sex is and will always be the biggest thing of all time. Malkova then goes on to explain her identity as an entire woman and how each of her body parts has a set of functions, including her sexual desires. As quotes by various authors/famous personalities splash through the screen, Malkova explains how society and religion have played an active role in diminishing a woman’s sexuality.
The camera while showing Malkova in various positions also shows her cuts and bruises, perhaps Varma’s way of naturalizing her in front of the viewer.
Malkova also explains how the concept of monogamy hinders a woman’s path towards exploring sexuality and tells us how porn liberated her. In the end, she thanks god for creating sex and for creating her.
Received with mixed reviews, some have applauded Varma’s initiative while some criticized him for further glorifying a woman through her sexual identity. Some are just happy seeing Malkova on screen; some are pissed seeing Malkova on the screen.
The full video is set to release at 9:00 a.m. on the 26th of January on Mia Malkova’s official Vimeo channel. Varma has said that the video will have explicit nude imagery as the camera worships every square inch of Malkova.
