Lord Curzon Ki Haveli
The Story
The film opens on an evening in the English countryside: two couples of South Asian origin—one hosting, one visiting—arrive at a grand and somewhat eerie house for what is billed as a relaxed dinner. The hosts, Rohit and Sanya, welcome their guests Ira and Dr. Basukinath, but immediately the mood is off: a large wooden chest sits conspicuously in the living room, and the hosts behave with a mix of casual invitation and subtle provocation. As the dinner begins, Rohit casually claims that the chest contains the body of Lord Curzon (the historical British Viceroy of India) as a joke, but the remark unsettles everyone and sets the tone for the night. The gathering soon descends into a game of veiled barbs, revelations and shifting alliances: Ira, the newlywed wife, grapples with her cold, career-driven husband Dr. Basukinath who is keen to distance himself from his Indian origins and prove his “Britishness”. Meanwhile, Rohit’s discomfort with the immigrant/expat identity and Sanya’s frustrated acting ambitions simmer beneath polite conversation. Over the course of the night, as drinks flow (including vodka-spiked orange juice) and a pizza delivery interrupts the gothic ambiance, what begins as a dinner party slowly transforms into a psychological war zone. The chest—initially a macabre joke—becomes a silent spectre and the setting a kind of quarantine chamber in which identities, prejudices, resentments and power structures are exposed. One after another, the guests confess hidden truths: illicit visa manoeuvres, broken marriages, racial anxieties, the commodification of “Indian” wives by expatriates, and the legacy of colonialism—the lingering ghost of Lord Curzon’s era of imperial dominance. As tensions rise, the hosts manipulate their guests, shifting from convivial to sinister. Ira’s loneliness and suppressed irritation explode into biting mockery of her husband and shockingly decisive action. Rohit moves from genial provocateur to someone who seems to harness the chest and the house as metaphors for the suppression and reanimation of colonial history. Dr. Basukinath’s stiff facade cracks under the weight of Rohit’s jabs and Ira’s contempt, exposing deep insecurity and rage. A pizza-deliverer’s entrance underscores their suburban Anglo-Indian setting but also the underclass and migrant presence that the others ignore. In the final act, the dinner yields to violence, metaphorical and perhaps literal: the power balance shifts, the chest’s meaning changes, and the night ends altered for all of them. By dawn, the house shows the aftermath of truths told and facades shattered. The hosts—and guests—are no longer the same. What began as a casual social invitation has become a crucible for identity, performance, racism, resentment, belonging and betrayal. The chest may or may not hold a body; the question becomes not what is inside, but what has been unleashed. The dinner ends, but the “haveli” (mansion) remains a monument to unspoken histories and the unnatural intimacy of immigrants and ex-colonial relationships in modern Britain.

Param Sundari
Param Sachdev is the irresponsible scion of a wealthy Delhi investor who is eager to prove himself. When a fresh startup pitches him a dating app built on AI that promises to find your soulmate, he convinces his father to fund it—on the condition that he first finds his own perfect match. That leads him to Kerala, where the data lines up with Sundari, a modest young woman who now runs a homestay after losing her parents and is raising her younger sister, Ammu. Param arrives under the guise of testing the app but quickly becomes drawn into Sundari’s world of quiet resilience, family bonds and cultural richness far removed from his fast-paced city life. As Param spends time in the homestay, he navigates the rhythms of South Indian life—Sundari’s responsibilities, village festivals, local legends and the weight of her past—while entertaining dreams of making the AI love-experiment a success. Sundari, meanwhile, is wary: she senses the outsider in him, sees his attempts at adapting to her world, and keeps her guard up as she looks after her sister and tries to build a stable future. The interplay between their worlds—Param’s upright ambition and brash confidence, Sundari’s quiet strength and sense of duty—creates moments of friction and tenderness. As Param persuades himself that Sundari is the proof of his app’s promise, real feelings begin to stir, and he finds his own priorities shifting. After misunderstandings, culture-clashes and a moment of truth at a returning investor meeting in Delhi, Param must decide whether his venture and his desires align or whether the person he’s falling for demands more than an algorithm can capture. In the end, he chooses to recalibrate his life: Sundari and her sister receive his genuine commitment, the startup gets a human heart, and both of them embark on a future rooted in respect for each other’s worlds.

Over eighteen harrowing days, the great war at Kurukshetra War unfolds on the battlefield of the Kuru kingdom, where the cousins of the Kauravas and Pandavas march into a conflict that will reshape their world. The series traces this war from eighteen distinct perspectives—each warrior seeing their own hopes, fears and loyalties within the carnage. One soldier rises with righteous fire, another carries guilt for a past misdeed, a third fights not for victory but for survival. Their stories intertwine as the tactics of chariots and celestial weapons meet human anguish—royal commands clash with brotherly bonds, personal honour collides with the cost of obedience. Commanders shift, alliances fracture, and the ground becomes soaked in regret and resolve. Among the din of horns and the cries for vengeance, a few pause and ask: what price will peace demand? As war marches on, the warriors confront their own reflections—some discover that the real enemy resides not across the field but inside themselves. In the final hours, as kingdoms collapse and legacies are born in fire, the survivors stand changed—victory is pyrrhic, relationships are broken, and a new order rises from the ashes of bloodshed. The war ends, but the echoes of eighteen days will shape generations.
