Hear our review of Ajeeb Daastaans. Ajeeb Dastans is an anthology of meandering short movies intended to knock our collective senses out in four distinct directions. The themes explored being that of jealousy, entitlement, prejudices, and toxicity, the plots resonate with the unique socio-cultural backdrop of Indian society. Between a couple forced into an arranged marriage where the men get away with the upper hand, the class struggle of a maid and a laundryman, gendered experiences of two women working in different corners of a factory belonging to different castes, and a woman navigating her daughter’s hearing disability with everything that comes along in terms of her own emancipation, the stories are expansive yet constricting. The all-encompassing premise remains that of intricate human relationships in the greater Indian socio-cultural caste/ class divide. The brilliance of the narrative stands out.
