Movie Review
First of all, each of the actors was brilliant.
Second of
all, there was a tightly edited script that did not let you look at your
popcorn.
It began with quite a bang with each goddess showing her capabilities,
not as sexual objects as the men would want them to be, but as individuals who
could take charge.
We have a photographer, a businesswoman, an activist, a
singer, a housewife, a maid, a struggling actress and a little girl. Friends
gathered to celebrate a marriage and each one helps in building the story of
the angry goddesses.
I loved the way so many issues were integrated into this
movie. Activism against mining, same sex marriage, legal hassles related to
crime, drugs and depression, infertility, women in Hindi movies, single moms
and finally rape and murder – each of these issues scorched the screen. The
camaraderie and the squabbles among the women livened things up.
Thank you Pan Nalin for this story, though I would like to
know why the image of Kali remained blurred.
But no matter, our Angry Indian
Goddesses took over and gave Evil quite a chase.
