Dolly, Kitty et les étoiles

Lot of flaws in script and execution. According to story gender equality means married men and women both can have extra marital affair for pleasure. One female character is confused throughout the movie and in the end settled for pleasure service for females (again for gender equality). The summary of the film is that there are lot of intimate scenes and in between they put two confused woman who somehow settles for something they feel women empowerment or gender equality. Only thing to watch is some good acting by all the characters, even those who had small roles.

Director Alankrita Shrivastava is back with yet another women-centric entertainer after Lipstick Under My Burkha. But this time she missed the opportunity and failed to deliver an amusing film. The potential star cast is completely wasted due to the bad script.

There's a bunch of users who created their account in August/September 2020 who have rated the movie 10/10. There's another bunch of users who created their account in July 2020 who have rated the movie 7/10. The other movies these users have rated recently are Abhay, Four more shots, Gunjan Saxena and Mrs.Serial Killer. So obviously there is a factory of fake users trying to crank up the average ratings. That speaks volumes about how good this movie is.

Just like her last film "Lipstick under My Burkha" this one also deals with not so amenably communicated female issues, their inner liberty and their intricacies. But unlike that film where the concerns were interlaced aptly with the screenplay, DKAWCS tries too rigid to fit them in the overall narrative. The film tries to touch on innumerable issues & taboos in the span of 120 minutes which made it fickle in the end. Even after a very talented cast DKAWCS fails to find its voice.

The film just dropped on Netflix.

2 stars because the actors have potential but the story or the lack of it makes for a boring watch.
