Five years ago, we saw ‘Bombay Talkies’ and the gang of four
hit back again exclusively for the ‘Netflix’ generation. This time, we see the movie real time in the
Fiji Islands after work. We see how they see people and places. There are four
untitled stories done by Anurag Kashyap, Dibakar Banerjee, Zoya Akhtar and Karan
Johar weaving Kiara Advani, Vicky Kaushal, Neha Dhupia, Radhika Apte and Bhumi
Pednekar around a common motif.
The idea of launching the films on Netflix – a LIVE
streaming platform is liberating for the filmmakers, I wish this existed when
Kashyap made yet-to-be-released ‘Paanch’ I think, it would be a good idea to
launch it legally now. Coming back to
where we began, there are clueless men and strong women fore-playing. The film
is apt in a sexually liberated environment and very urban. All the films apart
from the common theme ‘lust’ also portrayed how strong willed these women are
and all of them exactly knew what they wanted in/from life.
Anurag Kashp’s opens the film with his muse Radhika Apte as
Kalindi maam as a carefree, spirited women citing Amrita Pritam and Mahabharata
giving a monologue in and out of the screen with the audience, was justifying
her ‘acts’ at the same time susceptible by morality and legal arguments of
rights and wrongs. Wont get into a spoiler mode as the film was released in June 15 and this is September, been three months already.
The remaining Lusty stories can be seen at Netflix
