#SmallisLarge:3 Hindi Short Films Featuring Big Stars

Hindi short films have been gaining a lot of popularity in recent times. These bite-sized pieces of video content contain some moving messages.  Short films do not have fancy props and/or rocking song and dance sequences, but end up creating an everlasting impact because of their ‘off-beat’ nature and crisp storyline.

Many of us love short films simply because they are somewhere around 20-25 minutes long, which means viewers do not require a lot of time to watch them. These can be watched while travelling in the metro, cab, etc. Unlike 150-minute-long Hindi movies, short films do not come with distractions (intervals, song and dance sequences, mindless comedy, etc.) and end up hitting you right on your head. Many of these shorts feature some of the biggest Bollywood stars.

Here are 3 Hindi short films you need to watch right away:

Oops!: Directed by Neeraj Panday, this comedy-drama short film throws light on the comic side of being in an extra-marital relationship. Starring Manoj Bajpai and Pooja Chopra in the lead, it showcases how a man gets ditched by his lover in an extra-marital relationship. Manoj Bajpai is the star of this short film as his facial expressions and one liners provide some comic relief to the viewer. You will laugh, giggle and chuckle as and when you start watching this film.

Ahalya

Sujoy Ghosh, known for directing edge-of-the-seat thrillers, such as Kahaani, hits the small screen quite hard with this short film of his. The film is a contemporary adaptation of the legend of Ahalya and stars Radhika Apte as the titular character.  Watch it for Sujoy Ghosh’s exceptional story-telling capabilities and you will not be able to get over it for a considerable amount of time.
