Anthology movies are those which consist of more than one short story in a single film. The stories though, may or may not have any connecting factor. In some such movies, the characters in each story bear some connection among themselves. However, it may also be the case that they are completely unrelated and have separate themes. The Indian film industry has made a few anthology movies among which some have been loved, while some have failed to work. Let us look at ten anthology movies of Bollywood.
