Unpaused: Naya Safar

Set of 5 seperate stories during the times of COVID. Really good cinema, worthy of OTT awards. P.s. - suggest you do not binge watch back to back, but savour one at a time.

Consists of 5 short films. And all of them were decent with a little emotional touch and every story revolves around pandemic. And IMO gond ke laddu was the best.

If you haven't watched it yet, no need to read the reviews, just go and watch it because it's beautiful, it's sad, it's lovely, and it's enjoyable.

Many anthologies have been made in the last few years. Ankahi Kahaniya, Ajeeb Dastaans are two examples. But Unpaused: Naya Safar eclipses them all. The last story is the best by far, but it is best to watch it in sequence to set up the aura, the depth of the issues, to dive deep in the times of early 2021.

The stories are very real and are depicted in their full reality without adding dramatizing elements. The direction is great (no overuse of portrait mode) and many many new actors are shining in great roles!

I like all story except the last one which was quite slow.. I strongly recommend this movie to understand the COVID situation who were people suffered lot.. Must watch movie..!

Other episodes are fine but last episode was so close to reality.

Nagraj Manjule is actor, writer and director of the episode and he has done a brilliant job.
