Lust Stories: Scintillating anthology that explores nuances, joy of sexuality and female freedom
Megha (Kiara Advani) is married to Paras (Vicky Kaushal). While she loves her husband, he is not able to satisfy her sexually. Megha then steals her colleague's remote-controlled vibrator. Megha comes home early, hoping to pleasure herself. However, all goes wrong as the grandmother of the house gets hold of the remote, mistaking it to be her television remote. What follows next is a comical scene where Advani finds herself moaning before her in-laws and husband, who has also landed home early.
The scene evoked plenty of laughs. The film deals with female sexuality and sexual needs in a mature manner. Advani has been praised for her fine act in the short. When asked if she had any inhibitions playing Megha, she told tabloid Mid-day, "Does it look like I had any inhibitions? Once in the moment, I just went for it! I trusted Karan completely. I think we made an iconic scene in that. But, beneath the humour is a serious subject that needs to be addressed."
