Irada

Your decisions shape the legacy of Irada, the final film of Parveen Babi—a story of corruption, courage, and the price of truth. In 1991, as India trembles under political unrest, a retired actress steps into her last role, not as a star, but as a symbol. This is more than cinema. This is intention made flesh.

Your decisions shape the legacy of Irada, the final film of Parveen Babi—a story of corruption, courage, and the price of truth. In 1991, as India trembles under political unrest, a retired actress steps into her last role, not as a star, but as a symbol. This is more than cinema. This is intention made flesh.

I remember the first time I saw Kiran on screen—glamorous, untouchable, a queen of Bollywood. Now, she sits across from me in a dimly lit café, hands trembling around a cold cup of tea. 'They’re watching,' she whispers. 'I can’t go back to that life. Not after what I know.'

I’m Geeta Sen, investigative journalist, and this interview was supposed to be about her comeback. Instead, it’s about a conspiracy that got her lover killed. Ashok Sinha—his name keeps coming up. A vigilante. A ghost. And now, apparently, the only man who can bring down Dinanath.

She looks at me, eyes wide with fear and resolve. 'If I speak, they’ll destroy me. But if I don’t… more people die.'

My recorder is running. The world is listening. And for the first time, I wonder—am I reporting the news, or making it?
