Girl, You're Cracking Me Up!

1 Veere Di Wedding (2018). Childhood besties Kalindi (Kareena Kapoor Khan), Avni (Sonam Kapoor Ahuja), Sakshi (Swara Bhasker) and Meera (Shikha Talsania) are celebrating Kalindi's innin wedding. She's marrying her long-time love Rishabh (Sumeet Vyas). But the special day goes south quickly, as skeletons tumble out of closets, and drama is thrown around like confetti.

2 Do Revenge (2022). Drea (Camila Mendes) is the Alpha girl in school until her sex 2 tape is leaked, allegedly by her boyfriend Max (Austin Abrams). Enter Eleanor (Maya Hawke), a gawky new transfer student who is furious that she now has to go to school with her old bully, Carissa (Ava Capri). The two forge an unlikely secret friendship to exact revenge on behalf of each other, paying homage to '90s films en route.

3 Shiva Baby (2021). Danielle (Rachel Sennott) is on her 3 way to a family gathering at a Jewish funeral, where her different worlds, which she had mindfully kept apart, will collide. Right after her appointment with her sugar daddy, she finds him amidst her parents at the funeral. An old flame, kept hidden in the shadows for years is there too. Then, sugar daddy's wife joins the group and things kind of explode.
