Thank you to everyone that proved my theory was correct. I'll make sure Jorden knows this.😁

Yes nathan is right they all were murdered and going out of the room means rebirth which none of them wants

The woman who is waxing and has no hair it’s because she was burnt to death 😞 attention to detail in this short film is so on point and so disturbing and heart breaking

It took the men until after the video to understand what it's about. The woman got it right away. That's the difference between sexual harassment awareness between men and women. And that's how real the issue is for women.

Hey Guys! I’ve been involved with this film since day one - from its first draft. This film was actually inspired from Jean Paul Sartre’s play “No Exit”, which is about dead victims in a room. The director of this film shared the concept with me in 2016 at a house party where me and a couple of her other close friends agreed that she should go ahead and make it. She comes from a theatre background and has been doing plays since she was 17. Devi almost took close to four years in the making, and after the final release - the first thing it got hit by was a wave of insinuations. A very important thing to note here is that - none of them are proven, but people don’t read the question mark at the end of a claim, they read the claim and give the benefit of doubt to the person who seems victimised. The entire team of Devi is willing to go through this legally because they are all honest in this particular predicament and not scared. I think a speculation shouldn’t hold you back from fully appreciating a beautiful piece of art - a proven fact should :) Anyway - really dig what you guys do!! Hope this gives you a little backdrop :)

Obviously all of them were raped and murdered. When all of them were watching the news on the t.v. and the reporter was reporting from locality of another rape victim, that victim was the little girl at the end because all of a certain the t.v. went off making a weird, squeaky noise and that indicated that the victim(little girl) just passed away. Right after that the door bell rang which meant the soul of the little girl left her body and reached the purgatory/heaven. As the soul of the little girl arrived in heaven the t.v. went on automatically and it indicated that the process of another rape victim's soul of leaving the human body and arriving in heaven is complete... Also the woman in the burkha was waxing but she had no hair on her leg, that's because she was burnt to death (as we the audience came to know about it later on) So, as a viewer we have to pay close attention and have to understand the subtleties and nuances to feel the full effect of this short film that the director wants us to feel. I knew that the little girl entering the room would be the breaking point for Rachel. That scene messed me up also. Yes I have watched *Four* also and *Devi's* theme and some dialogues are very similar to that of *Four* short film. *Four* is a 6 minutes long short film and it's equally impactful and moving. It didn't have any big names hence it didn't grab the attention of a larger number of audience. React to these following short films:- 1) Sparsh (K K Menon) 2) Kriti (Manoj Bajpayee) 3) Adheen (Sanjay Mishra) 4) Anukul (Saurabh Shukla, Parambrata Chatterjee) 5) Carbon (Nawazuddin Siddique, Prachi Desai) 6) The School Bag (Rashika Dugal) 7) Two (Silent short film)(Nawazuddin Siddique, Irrfan Khan) 8) Juice (Shefali Shah) 9) Rogan Josh (Naseeruddin Shah) 10) Chhuri (Tisca Chopra, Anurag Kashyap) Watch these short films. These short films are better than many big budgeted multi-starrer films...

They were all souls..only Nate got it

yes they are all dead, they described how they died in the film

We can understand reaction of Rachel.. for a women it's a very diffcult to even imagine that happening, in India it is becoming common and we have to fight against it. It doesn't mean that we don't have good guys over here but still education is really important and that is so true that we worship lady as a goddess here even we call our nation as Bharat maa that means India is our mother but still we come in the most dangerous country for women list and it's very sad

The dad is correct. It's a purgatory.

I think Rachel needs a trigger warning for this kind of content! I know it’s hard to do when you don’t want to ruin the surprise of the content. It’s hard to watch her get so upset 😢

Rachel, you have one of the most genuine souls, do try to keep that intact and always be aware that your empathetic powers are special.

Ohhh .my heart goes with Rachel...she has got so emotional while watching the short film...even I also cried....😢😥😞😰

Yes they are all dead.. those were procedures how they got killed

Dear Rachel, sending you lots of love and hugs. I understand your pain, those of us who grew up in India are heartbroken to see this, mainly because it is true.

I got devastated watching this. The short film hit me hard. I can't believe such an impactful film is a copy though. I guess still credits to the acting, music, set-up and research are due. I hope one day India becomes the safest place on Earth for women.

True... These were souls of the women who had been raped and then murdered... If you remember . A lady asked the girl what r u studying for an exam that you are never gonna give.

This is the 4th time I've watched this film and it still makes me cry like an infant. Hard hitting. You've seen Kajol in My Name is Khan with SRK, and most recently in Tanahji. She is a highly awarded actress. She has been a social activist for decades and is known for her work on behalf of women and children. She is married to fellow actor Ajay Devgn.

I've been a sexual assault victim and like Rachel, I too burst into tears when I watched the ending. It's triggering and harrowing and poignant. My heart goes to Rachel too

Jordan is So Wrong for first time

Neha Dhupia clearly said "It wasn't the incident but the trauma, that led her there". What took you guys so long to realize that they are dead and its after life conversation?

Thank you so much for reacting this short film. I have suggested it. ☺️☺️ They were all dead.The film showcases how crimes against women cut across age, language, social status, religion, education and even class.

It’s so lame that these kids did not understand the context even with subtitles. The lady in the back understood it completely and was able to relate to the current situation of women in India and in the world.

Nathan is right because the old lady said to the girl wearing lab coat that why are you studying when you're never going to give the exam.

the elder woman literally said that they burnt her to death what else do you need as a proof?

Poor Rachel,I wanted to give her a hug. I am a grown ass man and I was in tears too watching this. Heck I've seen this film 3 times and found myself welling up each time.

Correct, those were souls

They are all souls.

got emotional by rachels expressions. Most touched short film.

Yes Nathan, you are right, you understood well..

I love how emotional is rachel..

The creators should resolve the copyright issue and send this masterpiece to the Oscars. It will win Best Live Action Short Film for sure.

Rachel silently crying broke my heart :'(

Rachel, stay strong sister! I make us all cry every time we see it.

Yup !! Purgatory was the setup

I have nothing against the kid in the cap and wish him all the happiness in the world, but he must be leading a REALLY privileged life to be so oblivious to reality when it's staring him in the face. I hope he continues to be so, because ignorance is indeed bliss, and I dont want him to experience how it feels to have his heart shattered.

Who won't melt down on such kind of issues... literally i wept...much power to all women who suffered such situations....and lady in in vedio( i don't know the name) got such a pure heart she doesn't care about channel their reaction but showed what she truely felt... much power and respect to you sister

Kajol is big superstar won most Filmfare Awards (6)

When Rachel cry 🥺 I cry 🥺. She is the life of your videos.❤️

Thank u so much to all of you guys for making a video on short film DEVI ❤ plzz share this video because its a voice of a women and girl who suffers from such a shameful act and let the world know that in india how indian women were suffering and how our laws and government works in india. You guys have done a great job ❤ . Love from INDIA 🇮🇳

She made me cry..very natural reaction..thank u

dad you are right

They clearly described the way they were killed after being sexually abused... Burnt alive, trauma, using a rock etc...and after going through the subtitles I don't think it should take so long to get to the conclusion... Rachel understood all that 😣😣

I totally understand Rachel's reaction but I hope she talks about her point of view on this film cause that would be really relatable to hear.

As a mother of two daughters and a middle class Indian woman I was literally Rachel at the end of the video.. when that little girl walks in I just burst out crying and was sobbing incontrollably.. we can't even imagine the pain and helplessness such women grow through and it's a dark reality women face in this country and around the world😢

Rachael is the strength of this reaction channel. She is sensitive and feels the emotions of the video. Irrespective of the language, she empathizes with the videos.

Why didn't Jordan get it?? It was shown clearly... Nathan was the only one!!

Today Nathan was correct not Jorden. Jorden you are correct but the women are protected as in different medium (After death)......The lady in burkha said she was burnt ...now that should make us all understand the situation I was so waiting for you guys to do this review.....

this was truly so formidable to watch because the girl that came in was the same age as my little sister so I cried at the ending

I love you Rachel!!! 🤗 god bless you, you've got a pure heart I was crying when I watched this aswell. I literally wanted to come there and hug you I fully understand your tears ❤ love you guys

That last scene always make me cry 😭 but I feel Rachel doesn't even watch half of the videos but she should endure it and watch it to understand full.

Oh no. I had requested in the previous videos to watch it with all the ladies in the house since it is a female centric video. Nevertheless, thank you for reaction. Also apologies for not mentioning a trigger warning for Rachael as we did not want to give away anything but then this is too sensitive.

Nathan has point, being in full shape after being burnt alive is next to impossible

God bless you rachel..

Racheal you deserve love 😢

The woman in Burkha literally said she was burnt alive 😅

Rachel you're really brave to cry openly. Most women choose to supress it or exaggerate it..💓

M startled by the kids understanding towards the video.. Nathan is right..

I mean how can you not get it, especially when one of them mentiones, that hers wasnt from the incident (being the rape), infact it was from the trauma after (which means death).

She very kind heart n she cannot control her pain

Dear Rachel, if you read this, please thank God for being born in USA ! I don’t mean USA is a very safe place for women, but it’s muchhhh better than India ! I have lived both in India and in USA, and I know how big the difference is ! It’s way more bad in India, than what is shown in this 13 min short film !! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

OMG Rachel is such a pure soul .

I usually dont comment but i felt Rachael, couldnt stop looking at how she felt and what she was going through ...

Can't imagine this channel without Nathan and Rachel

The fact that happens in India makes me feel bad about being a Indian😶😥

Thankyou for watching 💖🙏 Please pray for these souls,in India, many of them haven't even got justice. Hope, they all rest in peace now.💝💝

Rachel you are such a genuine and soft-hearted soul. She deserves hugs when she feels upset. I feel she cries alone and then picks herself on her own. I'm sure she is a warm and welcoming person. Everyone looks so young in this family. Took me a few videos to understand how everyone is related. Please, please, please watch Aamir Khan's movie, Delhi Belly. It's rip roaring hilarious. (Warning: Excessive toilet humour)

I dunno if you have already done it but I would like to recommend 'Sairat' movie trailer. It was a mega hit in 2018 and won several awards.

I hope this movie goes to the Oscars. Not for winning the award, but so that more people around the world can see it.

Real emotion comes from mom always 🥰

They are dead. It is confirmed from the fact that the women who was burnt alive should have left scar marks if alive but there are no marks at all. In fact for that matter whoever was injured has no marks which is only possible in heaven/purgatory after it becomes soul.

I have a busy life. So never really take my time to watch any trailers. The only time i do watch trailers is when I watch your trailer reactions. Get to watch the reactions and the trailers and this short film. Hate to see Rachel cry 😭

There souls were talking to each other..the women in burkha had all her hair burnt that's why there were no hair while she was waxing

It shows so much - age, the clothing, relationship, religion - nothing leads to rape. Rapists leads to rape and murder.

Nathan was right. I guess why Jordan is so taken aback by that could be because not a lot of people know that in India, lot of rape victims get murdered too in the end. it's so disturbing.

Your assessment is correct . It is shown that they all were murdered . That’s why the girl who is studying is taunted on why she is studying when she is not going to give any exam .

Nathan's on the money - they're all spirits

Jordan, they literally mean what they said. Their heads were bashed, they were burnt alive, etc. all of that they meant it Nathan is the smartest of all of you

Why would they be wearing those kinda clothes if they weren’t dead ? ... why is the medical student still in her apron , the business woman still in her pant suit ... it shows that’s what they were wearing when they got killed . Now they’re stuck here but they find solace in this very place. This short film also depicts how harassment cuts through each class of the society irrespective of their religion ,age, attire or socioeconomic background .

Its symbolic afterlife scenario

Nathan got the concept . ..kudos mate 🤘

The man in the left understood what it meant lol

I was also crying like hell... Like the girl while watching it. This is such a touching short movie l.

Yes, this is right that sexual harrasment case is high level in India but this main cause is not get well education.

Didn't anyone realize why they're together in one room and bickering at each other towards futility of doing stuff? This is because these women died violent deaths and now their souls are stuck somewhere in between eternity. That is why they're so angry and miserable on top of dying unnaturally because of the varied violent acts on them. This film is so profound in its subtle content and context along with brilliant acting. Kudos to all..

This film is so heartbreaking. I was devastated when I little girl walked in the room. They showed it could happen to anyone. It does not matter it they are poor, rich, educated uneducated. They were murdered

Only nathan understood this short film...They are dead due to same incidents.

This film when watched didn't make me such emotional as I am now by understanding the pain just by reading the emotions from rachel's face... Thanks

Nathan is completely correct ... They r all dead ... they were saying how they were murdered like with knives, beer bottles etc ... Then one lady said she died because of trauma ... Then the old lady says "we didn't get the chance to cry" ... Another time old lady was saying to the young girl "What the use of studying when u can't give the exam"...

Rachael is very emotional lady i like her expressions

He is absolutely right and I am surprised he got it the first time even just with subtitles. To tell you the truth I didn’t get it the first time when I watched it. It took me while to comprehend this whole scenario

It’s so great to see your first reactions. Thank you for sharing. I’m so glad I’m not alone in how I perceived it, Nathan.. and I really like your thoughts

Guys, its a serious issue like any other country, plz don't think, India is worst in this. INDIA has 1.4B ppl, SO THE RATE IS PRETTY LOW TO THE AMOUNT OF POPULATION. ITS A VERY BAD ISSUE happening in India, like any other country.

All of them are actually souls, who were raped and murdered.. Now they are waiting in a court waiting room for their turn to get justice...

Come on Troy and Jorden! It's like in Jean-Paul Sartre's play 'No Exit'. All of those characters have been clearly shown to be dead. Please also read many comments of others here that explain the point nicely.

Nathan got it right at one go. They all were raped and murdered, and this was like the afterlife, like after death they are in a place where they won't be harmed anymore. The young girl was the latest case that was mentioned in the news Channel

srk and kajol are one of the most popular on screen couples, all but one of thier movies are classics ❤️

Yes. Nathan is right. This is an afterlife setting. All the women in the room are victims of rape who later died as a consequence of it. The medical student signifies the infamous 2012 rape case of Nirbhaya. The girl at the end was an indication to the rape of a child in Kashmir that happened not so long ago. It also shows that rape knows no boundaries and women of all castes and ages are vulnerable. (The lady in the Burkha, the Marathi women, etc.) They shrug when the TV anchor says that the nation is outraged because it happens for a limited time only and then the world forgets about it. All the women in the room await justice. The bell signifies the arrival of a new victim and them debating whether to let her in or not as the room that they have been stuffed into was getting overcrowded with the amount of rapes happening regularly, the victim dying and arriving to that room in heaven.

Ahh I feel yaa Rachael !! 🖤

i watch only when rachel is there🙂🙂
