As said earlier, this will be a project shot in the vertical format, with 45 episodes. Each episode of this microdrama series will run up to 2.30 minutes, is what we hear.
Coming back to Ananta Productions, the banner is one of the pioneers in the conceptualization and execution of microdrama series, and has been working on many such concepts for various OTT platforms.
Shabaaz Abdullah talked to us about the unique experience, saying, “This was an awesome experience shooting for this microdrama. It was a learning experience for me to shoot for this vertical format. It was interesting to see and understand the different shot-taking processes used in verticals. There were not many master shots, and it was more of the close shots that were focussed upon.”
Talking about the storyline, Shabaaz states, “The story is about the relationship between a boy and a girl. The guy has met with an accident and is restricted to the bed, and the story traverses the journey of how the girl takes care of him, and what happens next.”
We hear that this will be a high-stakes relationship drama with unexpected twists.
