Filmmaker Arati Kadav’s sci-fi short film 55 km/sec will be debuting on streamer Disney+ Hotstar on Wednesday.
Featuring Richa Chadha, the film is based on Cargo director’s script. She shot it during the coronavirus-induced lockdown in 2020.
The movie will also release on ShortFilmWindow, an OTT platform founded by Kadav.
The short film takes forward the idea of living in a world stricken with fear as it narrates the story of an asteroid that’s about to hit earth.
“I am thankful to Disney + Hotstar and ShortFilmWindow for showering the film with love. The film is called 55 km/sec which is the speed at which the asteroid is making its way to earth,” Kadav said in a statement.
“As we’ve all acclimated to the new normal, the short film was a fun exercise. My team and I saw it as work to cheer ourselves up. Our virtual set was bubbling with new energy. This was a memorable experience for us and I hope the audience showers us with as much love,” she added.
55 km/sec was earlier released internationally on Amazon Prime Video US and UK.
