    Watch for the acting and Geeli pucchi

    Majnu: bad movie . Full of abuses and mediocre acting by the talented cast. It is a bit of an extension of sahib biwi aur ghulam.

    Khilauna: This is a good movie with very good acting from the star cast. It's funny emotional scary at times and the end opens up many questions that are not answered in the script.

    Geeli puchi: this is the best of all the 4 movies with amazing acting from Konkana sen. The movie though revolves around casteism, same sex interest and color obsession which some people may don't like as it is shown too much now a days when the things are changing esp when due to reservation the promotion for the particular section is better than the unreserved candidates .Nevertheless, there are still many cases around all the topics shown in the film so it deserves to be shown and it is shown very nicely in the film. Apart from this, there is a human emotional layer added to the story which makes the movie worth watching a number of times.

    Ankahi: this movie is a beautiful tale and beautiful acting by the lead casts but for me it is a one time watch.

    Very refreshing presentation of Cliche plots

    Starting with Majnu: It depicts the constraints of an otherwise powerful man in loving his wife, even in killing her but then he finds a friend in whom he confides but story serves a superb twist just then.

    Khilauna: A clever house-help who is just trying to make a happy life for herself and her young sister, but the young girl is too smart for her age. The young girl's work deserves a special mention, she seemed like a mature actor.

    Geeli puchchi: A simple married woman, who is trying to understand herself and her sexuality befriends a gay girl and how their story unfolds in an unconventional manner is worth watching.

    Ankahi: Manav Kaul is extremely cute in this otherwise regular story.

    Overall, the movie is a must watch. Because of the length of each story it keeps you entertained every minute you watch.

    Latter half is really good!

    Watch it for the 3rd and 4th parts. The performances and screenplays would keep you engaged right through.

    Maybe the best anthology movie of India after Masaan

    Watch the movie for 3rd and 4th story. They are absolutely marvelous.

    Konkana and aditi rao are very good in 3rd story. It was more like a commentary on friendship.

    4th story broke my heart so badly , the ending, manav kaul , first in Nailpolish and now this, he has won my heart.

    Please watch this story, it is straight from the heart.

    Kaul and Shefali nailed it.....

    Every story were amazing but Ankahi was way to precious and special.
