If you watched Lust Stories 2, you probably spotted the guard who is also the maid's husband in Konkona Sen Sharma's story "The Mirror."
Many people on social media wanted to know his name and who he is. Well, the cat is finally out of the bag as he is Shrikant Yadav, an actor who has played supporting roles in numerous films. He appeared as a police officer in Jalsa and was also in The Family Man. Along with this, he appears in numerous Marathi-language television programmes.
Hailing Shrikanth for being so amazing in the film, Amruta took to Instagram and wrote, ¡°Ok got so many messages asking me who played my husband in the film. Si happy that my old friend Shrikant Yadav @yadavshrikant is getting so much praise for this role! He is a fantastic actor, you must have seen him in #jalsa as a cop or also in #familyman . He has played my colleague¡®s role in Marathi film #killa . Apart from being a superb actor he is a great human being. Let me take this opportunity to express my gratitude towards him for his kindness and support throughout the #luststories2 shoot.He is such a such a pure and gentle soul.. just like Seema¡¯s husband Kamal in the film.We have been lucky to have him as kamal. @konkona @tillotamashome hai na?¡±
Tillotama on the other hand wrote, ¡°Cheers to @yadavshrikant , the man who did not have a say. And yet said so much.From the set of The Mirror by @konkona @netflix_in An incredible actor and human. @amrutasubhash i found the photo.¡±
Out of all the stories, Konkona Sen¡¯s tale impressed everyone the most. It is a story about embracing a woman¡¯s pleasure and its beautiful direction captured hearts.
Appreciating the film, one wrote, ¡°Appalled at how badly made all the films ¡ª except Konkona's The Mirror ¡ª are in Lust Stories 2. It's easy to wag a finger at male directors, but at some point, you've got to wonder why the likes of Neena Gupta, Kajol and Tamannah aren't alert to the awfulness they're part of.¡±
Another added, ¡°#LustStories2 @TillotamaShome and @AmrutaSubhash both are terrific. Shrikant Yadav (Kamal; Seema¡¯s husband) puts up a fine act.¡±

The filmmaker Konkona Sen Sharma has a somewhat specialised and distinctive voice. Naturally, she creates her own reality, one in which difficulties and taboos exist but are not immediately apparent.
