It is about two young people whose drab lives intertwine inside a single-screen movie hall where they learn to dream and hope for a better tomorrow. The middle segment of Ankahi Kahaniya, which narrates untold stories about unknown people who seek ways out of the shells they are forced to go into by a big city that either pushes them into a soul-destroying rat race or shoves into a one-way dump, is Chaubey's adaptation of a Kannada story by poet Jayant Kaikini (Madhyantara). His contribution to Ankahi Kahaniya transports us nearly four decades back in time and serves up a love story that is neither only about love nor just a story.

Yet another Netflix anthology - this is a compilation of three stories helmed by directors with proven track records and distinctive sensibilities - and yet another proof that Abhishek Chaubey ( Ishqiya, Dedh Ishqiya, Udta Punjab, Sonchiriya and a segment of Netflix's four-film compendium Ray) is in a league of his own.
