What is it like to be ageing men in contemporary young India? On one side, Indian uncles shouting. On the other side, selfies and Snapchat. Anuvab Pal tells us how middle aged Indian men delude themselves into wanting to be younger, and the tragedies that await them. As seen through his life as India’s most senior stand up comedian (pun intended). Who said tragedy isn't comedy?

In this sharp and unapologetic stand-up special, comedian Kunal Kamra dissects the absurdities of modern-day India with biting satire and fearless political commentary. Tackling topics like hyper-nationalism, media propaganda, and political hypocrisy, Kamra delivers brutally honest punchlines aimed at both leaders and the culture of blind devotion. With viral-worthy bits-including a controversial parody targeting Maharashtra's Deputy CM Eknath Shinde-Kamra walks the line between humor and dissent, sparking both laughter and backlash. Naya Bharat is a bold reflection of a country caught between comedy and chaos.

The Free Market - The Dark Side of Indian Start-Up Ecosystem poster
NR

In the annals of history, the victors have always held the pen. The Indian start-up story, a tale of triumph and innovation, is no different—crafted and curated by those who reached the pinnacle of success. We are mesmerized by the narratives of founders, their relentless drive, and the remarkable journeys that transform ideas into empires. Yet, what remains conspicuously absent from these grand narratives are the gray areas they traverse, the compromises they make, and the actions that, at best, raise questions and, at worst, cross the lines of legality and ethics. This documentary delves into the other side of the start-up dream: the harsh and often overlooked reality gig workers face. Through the voices of activists and organizations that fight for these workers, we uncover the nature of gig work, the gaping void in regulatory protections, and the profound apathy of ordinary citizens like you and me.
