It's something that you don't usually get to see from indian cinema, hitting the progressive topics and questioning the society's hypocritical attitudes towards woman. Its a worthwhile film.
Loved this movie.
It was so apt and to the point. The problems most of the women face irrespective of their family backgrounds, professions and the perk that they get. The way they are treated and judged by others. The difficulty to get the acceptance of who they are and always trying to prove themselves.
The movie was perfect. Great scripting; portraying the actual issues. Amazing actors. Amazing music.
Ladies you need to watch this movie. I'm sure you'd be able to connect at least at one point. And guys you should too. It'll give you an insight of the struggle that the women around you go through.

Oh my goodness, this movie was amazing! I recently re-watched the movie via Netflix and still love it. The beginning scene of the movie where you are introduced to the characters and their personalities is perfect, diving into their backstory without having to do flashbacks throughout the movie. Within the first few minutes of the movie you get a sense of the underlying story beyond the main characters. I watched this movie at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) back in 2015 where, I believe, it was still looking for a major film distributor. The movie was so popular that the festival added a 4th screening and it came second for People's Choice Award (almost unheard of for a foreign movie without a major distributor going into the festival). I remember the actors being introduced with the director after the movie and the group seemed to be good friends, which helped with the on screen performance. Interestingly enough, some scenes, especially at the beginning of the movie, were almost entirely improvised and the director just kept the camera rolling (cool right?). What you get is a completely realistic friendship between the actors which helps the audience relate to the story. The story has a very strong feminist plot, but I believe this is an incredibly important story to watch with its relevance in the world today.
There are movies that are pitched as being Feminist but preach all the wrong ideas, corrupting the progress of the actual movement. There are movies that try to inspire but make a mess of it in the end. And then there are movies like this one- talking about the right things, using the right analogies, and not mincing words while they are at it. The first half of the movie was a buddy movie- women from different parts of the country coming to Goa to be a part of their friend's wedding. These women occupy different social benchmarks, fulfill different roles in their respective positions and it is the diversity in the characters that push the movie forward. The diversity is not in their socioeconomic status or in their behavior- the main difference lies in the way they view the world. Some of these women are forward-thinkers while some ascribe to different notions about womanhood and the conversations between these women bring out a lot of positivity and understanding- serving as an example of how different backgrounds can meld together and create a beautiful congress of thoughts and ideas.
The second half takes on a different tone. The plot is darker and there are complex issues to be dealt with. The movie tries to talk about a lot of different things at the same time and at times it felt like it was going to be a hotchpotch of widely-varying topics. Thankfully, the director and the cast bring things together effectively, making it a remarkable package. The moral of the story was truly beautiful and I hope would serve to inspire people to broaden their horizons and stand up for what is right.
A beautiful movie. Definitely much better than most commercial films in Bollywood.

I too am angry. So angry. The way these women express their love towards each other is beautiful, and the anger and unhappiness they express towards their lives and their possibilities to be free in every way is heartbreaking.
We, women all over the world, know this anger and feel that love. It has to be a change coming.
I was very moved by the entire story.

- TriviaAbout 500 girls applied, about 200 girls were auditioned and finally Seven of them were cast in and as ANGRY INDIAN GODDESSES.
- GoofsAt one point, the women talk about homosexuality. They use the term 'Article 377', which is a common mistake of most of us. Later, towards the end of the movie, when a police inspector mentions this topic, he uses the correct term 'Section 377'.
While the general public thinks it is Article 377 (which refers to the Constitution), the authorities know it is Section 377 (which refers to the Indian Penal Code).
