The ten stories in the movie have been provided by the following writers: Gulzar, Javed Akhtar, Kamlesh Pandey andVishal Bharadwaj, so it is evident that you can expect some truly great short stories, by such maverick writers. And when it comes to direction, we have some of the best names yet again: Apoorva Lakhia, Sanjay Gupta, Jasmeet Dhodi, Meghna Gulzar, Sudhir Mishra, Shyam Benegal and Hansal Mehta.
Some of the stories are as follows: There is a highway which not just symbolizes the friendship of two characters, but also provides unpredictable twists and turns, which would affect the characters’ lives as well. Five friends start telling a tale which would end up involving these friends themselves. Friendship is tested and betrayal unleashes it’s ugly head in a story of a Don and his best friend. And a writer goes mad after he discovers something horrible about the woman he loves.
The cast of the movie comprises the following stars and the respective stories:
- Highway (Jimmy Shergill,Neha Dhupia)
- Accident (Anupam Kher)
- Rice Plate (Shabana Azmi,Naseeruddin Shah)
- Lovedale (Soha Ali Khan)
- Zahir (Aftab Shivdasani)
- Sex on the Beach (Dino Morea)

- Matrimony (Arbaaz Khan,Mandira Bedi,Sudhanshu Pandey)

Dus Kahaniyaan tries to touch every aspect of myriad lives, involving friends, enemies, strangers, lovers etc. And this is what the film’s USP is: touching virtually a large number of emotions and telling the tales which could be as real as anything, White Feather Films couldn’t have got it any better. And as far as some of the stars in it, who are deperately seeking that one elusive hit, it might just prove one for them. so be ready to listen the cliche’ line “Even though my role was small, it was highly acclaimed”. Because when it comes to unbankable stars at the hands of bankable directors, this is one line you are sure to hear.
