Ahalya Short Film - Sujoy Ghosh's Epic Thriller 'Ahalya' | Radhika Apte | Short Film 2015


Before you watch this movie you have to know the story of epic Ahalya. In Hindu mythology, Ahalya (Sanskrit: अहल्या, IAST Ahalyā), also known as Ahilya, is the wife of the sage Gautama Maharishi. Many Hindu scriptures say that she was seduced by Indra (the king of gods), cursed by her husband for infidelity, and liberated from the curse by Rama (an avatar of the god Vishnu).
 When I heard the story it seemed illogical as only the girl was punished even though it wasn't her fault. But the short film is completely opposite and sounds fair. It's a great thriller and I loved the twist.
