There is a reason Netflix has become one of the most prominent and accomplished content creators in India. After making a deep mark for itself in the global visual space, it's pretty much on its way to achieve the same in the country. <br><br> Don't believe us? Here's evidence in the form of this ad film starring Vijay Varma playing a pickpocket in the most convincing manner. The YouTube title of the video suggests that it's going to be about the product Netflix has to offer, a cheap subscription, yet, the viewer is left guessing throughout as to how this marketing goal will be achieved. It's a single-character narrative with beautifully shot visuals and an equally strong voiceover by Varma. The sophisticated cinematography, the powerful performance and the wonderful writing of the film are all tied together most seamlessly with visual tools referencing to Netflix's most popular shows, both in India and internationally. This ad film, thus, more than simply being a commercial selling a product, is also a visual treat for fans of not just the content it refers to, but also of storytelling and visual arts in general. 

Pappu Pakitmaar | Short Film of the Day

It's alright for a woman to switch careers and cities to keep up with her husband's job. But can the same be expected of the husband? Can we envision a society where a woman's career is as important as the man's? <br><br> This short film, made as part of Myntra's Bold is Beautiful campaign, raises the same questions. The Move is a lovely short film because it successfully conveys the message without creating a binary between relationships and career. It's not an either/or situation. A person can respect and want both, which is why the protagonist had supported her husband during a similar situation in their past. However, now when it's time for him to do the same, will he do it? Either way, the short film leaves us with a strong, level-headed protagonist who knows what she wants and will fight till the end to achieve it.
