Spotlighting the female POV | Lust Stories 3

Vishal Bhardwaj thinks it is the best format; Vikramaditya Motwane loved that it required just five days of shoot; Kiran Rao likes the discipline of making one; and Shakun Batra deliberated with the duration.

For Ruchikaa Kapoor Sheikh, Director, Original Films, at Netflix India, this was intentional. But “none of the characters subscribe to a stereotype,” she says.
