Story: This ambitious venture has 11 intertwined stories running in the same narrative about a filmmaker K and his many muses.
Movie Review: This film can be best described as a bizarre, underwhelming hotch-potch. Though some of these 11 sub-stories do show that rare streak of brilliance, most of them are sheer duds. The common thing binding them all is that they are unmistakably pretentious.

Of the many, it is Pratim D Gupta's story about a man and a woman living under the same roof at different times and falling in love in a quaint way, which is striking. The old-world charm lies in its wooden almairah, the acoustic guitar and its poetry. None of the other plots quite condense the idea of love so deeply. Though all stories are about unrequited love, this one feels the most complete one of the lot.
The most disappointing one came from Q,who tries his hand at an abstract idea, but his attempt doesn't translate to good. His plot is sinister, paints a macabre milieu, has his risque quality and yet, the story doesn't come together.
