‘The Cloud Door’ by Mani Kaul (1994)e: Anu Arya Agarwal's bejewelled breasts

‘The Cloud Door’ by Mani Kaul (1994) is a short Indo-German film that begins with Anu Arya Agarwal (of ‘Aashiqui’ fame) apparently topless on the sets of the film: though the viewer gets to see only what an intervening birdcage will allow.

Then there is a prolonged (though slightly blurred) underwater bathing sequence in which several absolutely naked young women swim past each other, showing their breasts, pubic hair, derrieres, everything.

Finally, there is a prolonged love-making sequence in which Kum. Agarwal is topless, easily the longest and most vivid display of breasts by any Indian film actress. The 28 minute film is freely available on YouTube. However, it was probably not screened in regular theatres in India.
