🎬 Title: Culture Vulture

Story: Anav Kaushik, a once-popular Bollywood star known for his hit films and casual attitude, finds himself without a strong voice. On Visarjan Day in 2020, Anav (played by Shaurya Tyagi) faces an intense interview with his ex-girlfriend, Ila Chopra (Rashi Mal), a journalist probing into the political messages of his films that align with nationalist and pro-police sentiments, alongside rumors of drug use in Bollywood. Throughout this challenging day, the face of the right-wing must devise a plan to deflect media attention from his marijuana use, grapple with the discomfort of reconnecting with Ila, navigate a budding romance, and contemplate his future—especially with his career hanging in the balance due to his lifestyle choices. With the shadow of controversy looming overhead, can he take a stand? Inspired by the themes of misinformation and real-life events.
