By its own admission, the film is shot entirely on mobile phones without any of the team members leaving their house. The effort deserves appreciation, as does the desire to weave a narrative to celebrate the frontier warriors of the coronavirus pandemic - the health workers. The film simply pivots itself on the same premise. <br><br> It is the story of a married couple which is far from each other, despite a deep longing for union. As the conversation between them progresses, it provides more details about their lives - introducing the viewer to their biggest obstacles, and yet the self-less sacrifice continues. It is only towards the end that the film truly reveals how all of it ties up with the unwavering determination and dedication of health workers all over the world.

The film is a portrayal of a complex situation a couple has found itself in. It tries to discuss fidelity and the ideas of love and trust. However, the exploration remains wanting for more. <br><br> When a boy finds out that his live-in partner is cheating on him, he confronts her, but instead of rejecting her or walking out of the relationship, he adopts a different approach. The film might be well-intentioned, but the characters remain superficial and their motivation comes across as unconvincing. The story has the potential to be unique and perhaps can be explored expertly in similar projects by the team.
