Watch our review of Ek Chatur Naar (One Clever Woman), a 2025 Hindi-language comedy-thriller starring Divya Khosla Kumar and Neil Nitin Mukesh, written by Siddhaarth Goel, Jay Master and Deepak Nirman, directed by Umesh Shukla, streaming now on Netflix.
It’s the kind of movie I love most, a comedy with a social message about oppressed people stickin’ it to the man. It reminded me of some of my favorite films in this tradition, My Man Godfrey from the US, 1936, the 1956 Indian film Jagte Raho starring Raj Kapoor, and the 2019 Hoichoi limited streaming series Astey, Ladies (Salon de Paris) written and directed by Abhijit Chowdhury. That’s one of our favorites as well.
