Bollywood
A Film by Vipin Radhakrishnan
Bollywood is a millennial relationship drama and a heartfelt homage to cinema—especially Bollywood—that shaped a generation's earliest ideas of love, romance, relationships, and even sexuality. Inspired by larger-than-life stories on screen, they chased cinematic dreams of romance, only to confront the complex realities of love and connection in today's rapidly changing world.
The fragile relationships of three cosmopolitan couples in their late thirties in Trivandrum begin to unravel after a birthday party hosted by a former Bollywood director who is close to the men. As tensions spill into their personal lives, the couples are brought together again to act in an amateur short film made by one of their younger brothers, where the simmering conflicts finally come to the surface. The film is designed with an ensemble star cast.
