CALENDAR GIRLS - Movie review

An outdated Calendar - Rating: **

In these fast paced times, with the virtual world and the Television Channels continuously evolving, and new opportunities are cropping up every day, there is always a new face waiting to be discovered now and then.

A decade ago there was a phase when models featured on the Calendar of a brewery were treated as something out of this world. They became celebrities overnight.

The film features 5 girls who hail from different towns & cities of India, and who have been selected to pose for the country’s most prestigious annual Calendar which is a joint effort of a business tycoon Rishabh Kukreja, and his able photographer friend Timmy Sen.

The selected 5 calendar models are – a Hyderabadi girl Nandita Menon (Akanksha Puri), a Goan Sharon Pinto (Kyra Dutt), a Pakistani model Nazneen Malik (Avani Modi), Rohtak’s Mayuri Chauhan (Ruhi Singh) and a Bengali Paroma Ghosh (Satarupa Pyne).

Calendar Girls is an average film with skin show in abundance.
