Chaurahen (Crossroads)
Drama
2
Chaurahen (Crossroads) is an evocative and poignant composition consisting of three separate stories set in three different cities in contemporary India. Each revolves around love, life, and loss. The first story enters straight into the heart of Farooq (Ankur Khanna) and Ira's (Soha Ali Khan) relationship in Mumbai. Farooq remains troubled by his own inability to let go of the memories of his dead parents in his ancestral home, which he continues to occupy and use as the disturbing muse for his own writing. So deeply ensconced in being haunted by his own past, Farooq appears incapable of fully living in the present, to the extent to which he proves powerless in responding to the possibility of sharing true love with Ira.
In Kolkata, the second vignette revolves around Dr. Siddharth Bose (Victor Banerjee), a wealthy Calcutta surgeon in his fifties. Dr. Bose's is stuck in the rut of a loveless, pitiful, and seemingly pointless marriage, which he attempts to rattle by embarking on a quick, nervous and uncomfortable affair with a much younger woman. His lover, Lea (Kiera Chaplin), is a German on her own journey to discover India, and to some extent herself. Their passionate yet tormented romance lays the groundwork for Dr. Bose and his wife (Roopa Ganguly) to repair their relationship while Dr. Bose simultaneously self-destructs his nascent, doomed affair.
The third and final story occurs in the south Indian city of Kochi where the Nair family confronts the sudden loss of a nuclear family member who died serving in the Indian military. One of the Nair children, Naveen (Karthik Kumar), returns from Vienna to try and reconcile the harsh, lonely reality of his brother Keshi's (Shayan Munshi) death with his own inability to connect with his personal and familial history in India and his present predicament of having to feign a relationship with a woman to conceal his love for a man in Europe.
Monica

Lucknow - the city where she lived and returned to die. Very early in life, Monica had learned that there are only two categories of people: the exploiter and the exploited.
But Monica was not ready to toe the line. She was prepared to barter.
She married Raj Jaitley for love, cajoled Aseem Ray for position and seduced Pamela Garewal for power. She surrendered to Chandrakant Pandit for all this and more.
Ambition is often seen as a boon in men, but in a woman; it's a bane. Is that justified?
Did Monica get what she deserved or was she shortchanged?

Inkaar
Drama

The film is about relationships.It discusses the shift in dynamics between a mentor and a trainee, when power, sex and greed are added to the equation. The film follows Chitrangda's journey over a period of eight years, as she transforms herself from being a carefree hippie to becoming a corporate bigwig. The film shows the sexual harassment she faces at the hands of her superior Arjun Rampal.What's interesting though is that the film will show two sides to the sexual harassment issue. So much so, that the lovemaking scene in the film too will be shown from both the male and the female characters points of view.
