MUMBAI: Fox Star Studios India is all set to release Black Swan in India on 25 February.

Black Swan revolves around Nina (Natalie Portman), a ballerina with a prestigious New York City ballet company whose life, like all those in her profession, is completely consumed with dance. When artistic director Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel) decides to replace prima ballerina Beth MacIntyre for the opening production of their new season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice.

But Nina has competition: a new dancer, Lily who impresses Leroy as well.
Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace and the Black Swan, who represents guile and sensuality.

Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side - a recklessness that threatens to destroy her.

Directed by Darren Aronofsky, the film is a psychological thriller starring Natalie Portman, Vincent Cassel and Mila Kunis.

Black Swan has already won a Golden Globe for best actress and bagged five Oscar nominations (best picture, best actress, best director, best cinematography, best film editing) apart from receiving standing ovations at numerous international film festivals.
