One finger goes a long way when it comes to gestures, as these Bollywood stars will have you believe.
In Rensil D'Silva's Ungli, set to open in theatres this Friday, November 28, the lead characters suffer from a common malaise -- if they see a corrupt administration, they have to butt in and make things right. This is also known as 'ungli karna' in colloquial Hindi.
But that isn't necessarily the only meaning of that phrase, for film folks are a mysterious bunch.
Here, we try to decipher the meaning of these ungli gestures by several stars.
