Anecdotes

  • Tourné à : Bombay

Early Days is a 2025 debut romance-drama film directed by Priyankar Patra. It had its world premiere in the New Visions Competition of the Red Sea International Film Festival. The film explores relationships on the digital era and follows a couple in Mumbai, India, whose love becomes intertwined with social media.

Production

Patra stated in interviews that the first spark for the film came from his younger cousin who is a content creator.

The film production started as a weekend experiment between four friends shot primarily with a handheld camcorder to give a voyeuristic closeness to the characters. This was contrasted with high definition videos shot on phones to display the life that's put out to the public.

The production slowly evolved into a full-fledged international co-production with Singaporean company, Hazelnut Media coming onboard during the subsequent stages.
