CONCLUSION

I love the concept. The story showed how the people survived in the lockdown. Moreover, I love the acting of Ekta who played the role of food delivery. The story showed the situation of COVID. Even it showed every stranger is not that bad. Some people are good. Also, I love the setting and the camera part. Moreover, I loved the director part but it could have been long. The director has the potential to do more films.
