Private Project

Lagbhag

Meet Parag, a spirited filmmaker who sets out on a journey to pursue his dreams in the city of dreams, Mumbai. Temporarily staying with his childhood friends Swapnil and Abhishek, Parag finds himself at a crossroads when his romantic proposal ends in rejection and his father's call echoes with questions of expectations and timelines.

As Parag struggles to find his footing in a city that can both inspire and intimidate, his friends become his pillars of support. But beneath their camaraderie lies an exploration of male sensitivity and the unspoken bonds of intimacy in male friendships.

Director Statement

Our film 'Approximation', which translates to 'Lagbhag' in Hindi, delves into the societal constructs of masculinity and the stigma surrounding vulnerability and asking for help. Through our film, we challenge these norms and celebrate the strength found in embracing one's emotions and leaning on those who care.
