Oye Teri
It’s a normal day in the life of this man when he wakes up. But when his wife is miffed and says nothing he begins wondering what’s wrong before realising his mistake. Will the couple have a happy ending? This short film by Anand Tiwari starts off on a promising note and will keep you interested right until its unpredictable end.
Salt ‘n’ Pepper
We aren’t exactly pumped up about this short story but the leads feature Tejaswini Kolhapure (who did a stellar job in Ugly) and Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Just discovering the many roles Siddiqui has done before sharing screen space with the Khans of Bollywood makes this a worthwhile watch.
Anukokunda
Not many times do you get to see a short movie that gets shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival. Scripted, shot and edited in a mere 48 hours, Anukokunda (Unexpectedly) was made by Hyderabad-based engineers-turned-filmmakers. The short story is a sweet love story backed by an effusive score and good performances.
Arranged Marriage
Areesz Ganddi’s Arranged Marriage is a short film that tackles the subject in a mature way. There is none of the soppy first-meeting coyness or shy moments when the two protagonists meet for the first time. Instead, the questions are direct, firm and even too personal for a first meeting. A headstrong woman and a confident man answering questions truthfully makes for a good short story.
Inbox
Finally, we have an impossible story to warm your heart. Inbox is the story of two people who get the wrong bags while shopping at a store and start exchanging messages through the bag. Actually we don’t want to say much.
