Sparsh Shrivastava is spectacular in this comedy of errors.

There are certain stories that only specific cultures are able to tell, and Lost Ladies is certainly one of them. From its initial premise to character behavior and resolutions, the movie is very specific to Indian culture, but it also finds a way to invite outsiders in for the ride. But none of it would have worked without the immense talent of its main cast.

Sparsh Shrivastava Rises Above in 'Lost Ladies' Before we fully understand the brides’ motivations, we get to witness Sparsh Shrivastava’s amazing talent onscreen. He plays Deepak, one of the husbands who loses their brides and arguably the one who causes the whole mess. Even though he shares the spotlight with Pratibha Ranta and Nitanshi Goel, Shrivastava carries much of the film. Charismatic to his core, he is also given the most to do.

It’s particularly interesting to see Lost Ladies’ approach to Jaya’s storyline. From an early age, she knows she’ll have to put her foot down if she wants to follow the path she wants, but she’s also prepared to deal with the dire consequences of speaking up for herself. And even though it’s a comedy, it’s never lost in Lost Ladies that Jaya is up against a dangerous world, so the seriousness of a woman standing up to patriarchy is never played for laughs or watered down.
