Sex & Nudity

  • The entire movie revolves around sexual fantasies of a typical desi women. Some sex scenes with no frontal nudity.
  • An elderly woman is seen topless (we see her from behind). She is having phone sex with a younger, shirtless male. We don't see much action but it is clear from the audio that she is pleasuring herself. The younger male appears to be about to pleasure himself as well as he starts to slide his hand down to his crotch. The scene ends.
  • An engaged woman records her sex video with her boyfriend (with whom she is NOT engaged to) on her phone. As she records, she says that she will leak the video if she finds out he is cheating on her, with the boyfriend replying, "Will they see my face or my package?"
  • The narration throughout the movie primarily contains sexual scenes from the erotic book that Auntie is reading, like Rosy peeping at the showering tenant and his long manhood.
  • Some scenes with a swimming instructor wearing nothing but his speedos (these are not sexual).
  • A woman wants her husband to wear a condom after repeatedly having discomfort in her area during intercourse. He throws the condom away and resumes having sex with her.
