Kajol's
short
film,
Devi,
is
already
out
and
netizens
can't
stop
praising
it!
Twitter
is
inundated
with
positive
response.
For
the
unversed,
Devi
depicts
the
stories
of
nine
women
belonging
to
different
strata
of
society,
who
are
brought
together
by
circumstance
and
how
they
end
up
forming
a
sisterhood
after
sharing
their
stories
of
abuse.
Directed
by
Priyanka
Banerjee,
the
short
film
is
produced
by
Niranjan
Iyengar
and
Ryan
Ivan
Stephen.
Apart
from
Kajol,
the
short
film
also
features
actresses
like
Shruti
Haasan
and
Neha
Dhupia.
Have
a
look
at
what
netizens
have
to
say
about
Devi..

"Just
watched
#Devi
an
absolute
short
film.
What
a
cruel
patriarchy
society
we
live
in.
Shame.
Superb
work

"#Devi
shows
us
the
mirror,
the
reality
of
our
society
that
worships
its
goddesses
but
does
not
do
enough
to
safeguard
the
reality
of
its
women."
While
most
of
the
netizens
sang
Devi's
praises,
some
also
criticised
the
short
film
as
they
felt
it
could
have
been
better!

"Watched
the
much-talked-about
short
#Devi
and
was
utterly
disappointed.
If
appeared
tacky
and
unimaginative.
Being
a
woman,
I
felt
unmoved.
And,
that's
saying
a
lot.
Just
because
there
are
celebrated
names
onscreen
it
doesn't
mean
it's
good."

@populapette:
"The
short
film
#Devi
is
pretty
good.
The
suspense
could've
been
handled
better
and
the
staging
is
a
bit
messy-in
lieu
of
inclusivity,
but
effecting
still.
The
final
reveal-you
see
it
coming,
you
hope
you
aren't
right-broke
me
properly."
