Watch: Middle-aged couple try BDSM for the first time, and it’s the cutest thing ever!

There may be many things wrong with Fifty Shades of Grey (like the debatable portrayal of an abusive relationship in the guise of BDSM) but one thing the EL James’ series undeniably did was to bring discussions about kink into the mainstream.

When you think of cuffs and blindfolds, the image that probably comes into mind is that of a young couple. But sexual desire and exploration has no age limit and Terribly Tiny Talkies’ new short film Khujli (Itch) proves just that.

Starring Jackie Shroff and Neena Gupta as a middle-aged couple, the film opens with shots of a bed shaking rhythmically and sounds of a man moaning. But it’s not what you think it is: It’s just Neena scratching Jackie’s back with a churning stick to ease a stubborn itch.

The twist in the plot comes when Jackie finds a pair of pink handcuffs in his young son’s bedroom. Scandalised and angry, he shows his find to his wife. His tirade however, is interrupted when Neena smiles slyly and tells him she knows the handcuffs are used for BDSM, because she read Fifty Shades of Grey.

What happens next? Watch here:

The best part about the production is the completely realistic portrayal of a middle-aged couple trying (to try) BDSM for the very first time. The plot captures their awkwardness and excitement in an endearing manner – where they have plenty of mishaps but laugh with each other.

Sex should be fun, and the video brings this out beautifully. The couple do not taste success in their first attempt, but when Jackie says that their bodies may be too old for this, Neena laughs and says that practice will make it better. She emphasises on the “fun” they had, which she did not experience before.

All in all, the couple’s antics and improvisations will make you smile and laugh throughout (and probably give you some ideas too! *wink*).
