Nawab (Raghvir Yadav), a popular novelist of Hyderabad, is suffering from the
classic case of a writer's block. Five years have elapsed. Stories of substance
seem to have dried up. Almost providentially, Nawab comes across Meenaxi (Tabu)
at a traditional qawwali ceremony. The young woman is enigmatic and
individualistic. She's not quite willing to perform the part of a passive muse.
Meenaxi assumes different personae. She can be the mysterious perfume trader of
Hyderabad, the exotic desert bloom of Jaisalmer and the orphaned Maria of
Prague. Inexorably, she consolidates her command over the novelist. She
dismisses his renewed attempts at writing as insubstantial and hackneyed,
plunging him into a state of deeper despair. She is scathingly critical about
his story and is amused by one of the characters he creates, the lovelorn and
awkward kaameshwar.
Nawab strives to start on a new page all over again. Meenaxi comments that
perhaps the book is in vain. In any case, it is much too late. The writer must
survive and live, if he can, without her support, inspiration and criticism.
Delving into the limitless world of creative endeavour and the vicissitudes in
the way of such endeavours, Meenaxi : Tale of 3 Cities approaches myriad
aspects, the relationship between art, the real and the imagined being just one
of them.
