I had heard of Angry Indian Goddesses and meant to watch it earlier but never got the chance, then I forgot about it.Last night it screened on Tata Sky's Film Fest TV channel so I watched it.The story is about a group of women, most of them old friends. The film is set in the house of one of the girls in Goa where they all meet up for her forthcoming wedding. The plot touches on the lives of these girls, their relationships and so forth - for the first part. This does drag slightly in parts and could have been shorter, though the acting, cinematography etc. is superb. The film takes a macabre turn when on the eve of the wedding, one of the girls is brutally murdered. The movie concludes with the events that transpire thereafter.The plot may not appeal to all viewers. I thought it was a good film and worth watching

As a foreigner, coming from a country with a very high degree of gender equality, I am not native to the realities portrayed in this film, nor have I watched many Bollywood movies. Yet it is my opinion that the film in an emotionally moving and very aesthetically pleasing way,through captivating music and great cinematography, raises the important themes of women equality, emancipation and the hardship of discrimination in today's India. From the ease of the intimate dialogue among the varied women, the viewers are allowed to experience the challenges first hand, in the voice of the characters themselves. The viewer is included, almost as if he is sitting there beside them as they laugh, quarrel, debate, cry and grief ...I loved this movie and I still listen to the songs: the "Dil dola re"is very catchy and energetic, while the "Zindagi" ("life") is profound in all its beauty and tenderness (look them up at Youtube). If you're new to Bollywood movies this seems like a good place to start, while at the same time you are exposed to a very important theme in contemporary Indian society.

Oh my goodness, this movie was amazing! I recently re-watched the movie via Netflix and still love it. The beginning scene of the movie where you are introduced to the characters and their personalities is perfect, diving into their backstory without having to do flashbacks throughout the movie. Within the first few minutes of the movie you get a sense of the underlying story beyond the main characters. I watched this movie at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) back in 2015 where, I believe, it was still looking for a major film distributor. The movie was so popular that the festival added a 4th screening and it came second for People's Choice Award (almost unheard of for a foreign movie without a major distributor going into the festival). I remember the actors being introduced with the director after the movie and the group seemed to be good friends, which helped with the on screen performance. Interestingly enough, some scenes, especially at the beginning of the movie, were almost entirely improvised and the director just kept the camera rolling (cool right?). What you get is a completely realistic friendship between the actors which helps the audience relate to the story. The story has a very strong feminist plot, but I believe this is an incredibly important story to watch with its relevance in the world today.

This movie is one of the very in Bollywood which really talks about the issues faced by the Indians due to the society and the judicial system and what not. Though I am not very supportive to the ending of killing the criminals and I know it would have taken a lot many days for the court to sentence the criminals but taking the law in hand or killing someone just doesn't feel right to me. The Policeman rightfully depicts the actual policemen. They are supposed to help the people not to make their life miserable. I so support the way police in south Indian states works like in Chennai. Also, saying that "decent educated girls shouldn't wear these type of clothes" is just plainly wrong. Any one can wear anything they please and no matter what you wear the people who want to judge will exactly what the maid Laxmi pointed out.
