Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love (1997)
Directed by Mira Nair
“Passion, pleasure, power”
Drama, History, Romance · 1h 53m
Tara and Maya are inseparable, with the same tastes, habits, and hobbies. Years later, the two have matured but have maintained their friendship. Tara marries local prince Raj Singh, who succeeds the throne as the sole heir. After the marriage, Raj seeks another female to satisfy his sexual desires, with his sights settling on Maya, putting a perhaps unforgivable strain on a longtime friendship.
