Bhasker Patel Remembers Brothers in Trouble
Actor Bhasker Patel looks back on his experience playing Gholam in the 1995 film Brothers in Trouble. \n\nThe film-directing debut of Udayan Prasad, based on the novel Return Journey by Abdullah Hussein, Brothers in Trouble tells the story of an all-male household of illegal Pakistani immigrants living in the Midlands and how their lives are affected when Mary, a pregnant local prostitute, moves into the house. \n\nWith impressive performances from Om Puri, Pavan Malhotra and Angeline Ball, the film is notable for its depiction of life from a uniquely Asian perspective, and here, Bhasker shares his memories of the cast and production, recalls the critical reaction at the time and reflects on how the film can be viewed today, 30 years after its original release.
