The web-series is an exploration of familial ties, and marked by the coming together of humour, gravity, efforts to fit in and belong, and the one thing that keeps it all together - love. What the Folks is a validation of the unease and the underlying tension that constitutes most domestic equations. It is a reminder for the viewer that if you are still negotiating your place in your family, you're not alone. Here are a bunch of different and unique characters attempting to achieve the same in a fictive space onscreen.

The memories of 'firsts' - crush, love, kiss, rarely ever completely leave you. The first installment of this offering by Dice Media is an exploration of precisely the same. Taking the viewer into the hesitant romance of two shy school students, the series tries to be a dose of nostalgia and memories which may continue to linger long after they are formed. While adults may have learned the lingo of dating apps and contemporary romances, what will be the fate of two teenagers just beginning their first tryst with the unpredictable flow of love?

The latest offering by Blush is about the age-old debate - beauty versus brains. The discussion ties up with gender as two women argue if beauty for intelligent women is empowering or not. The film is simply a conversation between three of them, one for, one against and the third somewhere in the centre. They are made to sit side by side in a fixed frame, suggesting how they are all equals in this debate. It further offers a glimpse into the conversation around beauty which might not be entirely unique, but is much needed and imperative for us to go forward as a society.

The film is the story of one night which is about to spiral completely out of control. Randeep has a special guest over, Kimi, and things are about to get intimate between the two when an unexpected visitor arrives. On the other side of the door is Rashmi, Randeep's former lover with whom the relationship has gone south very recently. In her wake follows Shilpa, another of Randeep's lovers, and then the adjacent neighbors, with an unsuspecting pizza delivery person in tow. 

With each character, a new element of chaos arrives, as the narrative continues to build tempo, as well as humorous tension. The film does not take itself too seriously, and occupies itself instead with generating humor and entertainment at the expense of the hapless characters before us. 


Defined throughout by slapstick comedy, there is an unexpected development lurking within the ruckus, and when it is finally realized in this house of complete disarray, in flat number 404, it takes the plot home in a complete manner.
