Ajeeb Dastaan is only and only worth it for Neeraj Ghaywan's wonderful short. Konkona Sen Sharma and Aditi Rao Hydari are pitch perfect in their respective roles as a Dalit machine operator and a Brahmin data entry operator. The contrast between the two women is brought out beautifully. It is shown how no one is perfect and no one is completely trustworthy. Both women decieve the other in the end but the consequences are negative for just one of them.
