CGiii Comment

So...the good news...for a webseries, it's not too terrible.

The bad news is...one episode, for us, was enough.

But...there's no doubting the bravery behind this production...and, it's doing rather well on YouTube!


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

The 'Other' Love Story tells the tale of two women falling in love at a time when homophobia was still rampant in India. It is set in the 1990s, an era before the Internet and mobile phones took over our lives, when we still had to rely on love letters and landlines to exchange sweet nothings. The series traces the love story between two neighbours, Aadya and Aanchal, who live in Bengaluru. The dialogues are in English, Hindi and Kannada. This story follows how two neighbours meet, feel something and slowly find the courage to work on their feelings.
