Lockdown Rishtey(2020)

Lockdown Rishtey is an Indian series filmed entirely on mobile phones during the April-June 2020 lockdown across multiple locations. Shot during India's strictest pandemic restrictions, the series captures relationships and human connection despite physical distance. All actors were isolated in separate locations yet filmed in a way that creates the illusion of shared space, making the technical constraint a creative strength. The series explores how bonds endure when people are forced apart, blending intimate storytelling with the raw, unpolished aesthetic of phone-shot cinema. Lockdown Rishtey stands as a testament to filmmaking ingenuity during unprecedented times, turning quarantine isolation into a unique narrative device that reflects the emotional reality of lockdown for millions.
