Lust Stories 2

Sameer lodaya

There is nothing so much lusty about in fact the season 1 was better

The first anthology featuring mrunal was just emphasising sex in every sentence which was absolutely not required now a days no youngsters need this kind of knowledge specially when they are in relation so the content stands absurd

The anthology tillotama was good among all the others the content was new of fascination and was never shown before the making was also very good

The so called sizzling anthology of tamanna was hot but the content was very old here you can enjoy new Tamanna and vijay

Now the last anthology of Kajol was boring but the climax was very good

This weekend we have many releases let's see who hits the chart.

Thoughts summed up: Lust Stories 2 is a subpar anthology that'll only be remembered for Konkona Sen Sharma's standout segment. The rest are largely forgettable, leaving little in the way of impact.

Made for Each Other (R Balki): An ad-level concept stretched and squeezed all the way but nothing really stands out here. Neena Gupta's granny role sounded interesting at first, but quickly gets preachy and intolerable after a point (rockstar, my foot!). The ending is.. well, just an ending.

The Mirror (Konkona Sen Sharma): Stunner! Not only is the voyeur concept refreshingly presented, this segment also has the best payoff. Both Tillotama Shome and Amrutha Subhash are excellent in their respective roles. The scenes where the ladies lose their cool and their eventual reconciliation were remarkably directed.

Sex with Ex (Sujoy Ghosh): Apart from Tamannaah's unfiltered beauty, there isn't much to relish here. The story is a mess, the CGI countryside is an even bigger mess, and the climactic twist was seen coming 72 miles away.

Tilchatta (Amit Ravindernath Sharma): The plot is as old as it gets. Did this segment really need someone the calibre of Kajol? The twist at the end was fascinating (yet sad), and I think this should have swapped positions with Konkona's segment.

Out of the 4 stories, I liked "The Mirror" by Konkona Sen Sharma & "Tilchatta" by Amit Ravindernath Sharma.

"The Mirror" was successful in portraying the hidden sexual fantasies among some people.

"Tilchatta" had a brilliant twist in the climax showing how an evil plan backfires due to a sexual urge that can't be kept hidden forever!

The other 2 stories weren't that promising.

"Made for each other" by R Balki where the portrayal of the idea that sex is the only thing that makes a happy and long lasting marriage, felt unconvincing to me.

"Sex with the Ex" by Sujoy Ghosh was an amateurish direction with a weak plotline. Although I couldn't take my eyes of the voluptuous Tamanna Bhatia.

The problem with these kind of movies lies with the lust they want to sell. Even without those scenes the story can work and believe me this time the stories are fine.

The first story must not be Rated A if it was not in this movie. The story contains nothing in the name of lust.

The second Story portray some kind of illegal behavior but still you don't sympathize with any of the characters.

The third story in which Tamannah and Vijay is there wants to surprise you but fails miserably. What you can predict was there in the end and you are left unsatisfied there.

The fourth story which is predictable also leaves you puzzled about the name of this movie.

Atleast try to justify the title of movie.

Konkana segment-8.5 : layered/ great use of visuals and sound/ true to the theme Last segment -6/10 : Nothing unusual. Soapy melodramatic dialogues but the ending made sense to me.

Balki segment - 1.5/10 : preachy cliched and overacted. I legit sided with the trad parents on this one.

Sujoy Ghosh segment - 2/10 : adding cleavage and sex scenes does not make it a lust story. Not sure what the choice of shooting in a studio setting was meant to convey. Some ode to bollywood bcoz the protagonist was named Vijay Chauhan i guess. Not sure if his choices were dictated by greed or lust. Overall confused bit.
