Sayani Gupta, Gurbani Judge, Kirti Kulhari and Maanvi Gagroo play the four girls in question. Each of these girls represents at least one social pressure Indian women have to go through.
For example, Damini (Gupta) fails to manage her work and personal life due to constant misunderstandings with her boyfriend. Umang (Judge), a bisexual, is constantly dumped by her girlfriends who cannot be serious about their relationships with her due to societal pressures. You will get a feeling that ‘Four More Shots’ is trying too hard at times to be more progressive than it actually is.
