Standout episodes
01
Forget Me Not2021-06-25
Directed by Srijit Mukherji and starring Ali Fazal, Forget Me Not adapts Bipin Chowdhury's Memory Loss into a corporate-world thriller about a man whose past begins erasing itself.
6.502
Bahrupiya2021-06-25
Kay Kay Menon plays a prosthetics obsessive who discovers he can become anyone - and that this gift comes with a cost he did not anticipate. Mukherji's darker, stranger piece.
7.403
Hungama Hai Kyon Barpa2021-06-25
The anthology's acknowledged crown jewel. Abhishek Chaubey directs Manoj Bajpayee and Gajraj Rao in a train-compartment face-off that expands and contracts in ways the source story's brevity only hinted at.
8.204
Spotlight2021-06-25
Vasan Bala directs Harshvardhan Kapoor as a fading actor who encounters a mysterious figure named Didi. The most stylistically playful of the four segments - lighter in tone, more ambiguous in its resolution.
