"Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd.," her directorial debut released in 2007. The film was a refreshing take on the romantic comedy genre, weaving together multiple narratives of newlywed couples on a package honeymoon. Kagti showcased her ability to handle an ensemble cast and create a light-hearted yet thought-provoking film.


However, it was her second directorial venture, "Talaash: The Answer Lies Within" (2012), that truly showcased her directorial prowess. The film, a psychological horror-thriller, showcased her storytelling skills as she successfully blended suspense, drama, and supernatural elements to create a gripping narrative.


I have a feeling she is the brains behind Made in Heaven also. Somehow, the charachters and storytelling style is more hers than Zoya Akhtar's.


Truly I really like her films and wish she was more active.


Thoughts on her????

I think you should still give it a try! I've watched the movie a few times by now and it still gives me chills even though I know whats happening. Soo good.

I knew the twist but that didn't stop me from enjoying it the first time I watched it. Watched it a bunch of times again, and each time I find something new to love about it. I think it's one of the finest movies of previous decade.
