wogma rating: Buy the DVD already ^(?)

quick review: Sexual tension, neglect of a woman's urge, double standards, an artist's struggle in the big, bad world - all in one breath but without getting breathless. Thanks to some amazing wit inbuilt into the stories from folklore.

Plot Summary

A collection of four short stories about the fragility of man-woman relationships.

What Worked

The opening shot - made me impatient like the character who was waiting for someone to arrive.
The close-ups.
Photoshopped/artificial skies in the Panchatantra stories added to the "fairy tale" flavor.
The innumerable references to films and film-makers - old classics and contemporary

Ash:

Its a very mature review and I liked the film as well. I remember reading a review by Komal Nahta where he gave it one star! Trade pundits should seriously stop reviewing movies!
