Disney+ Hotstar anthology Stories On The Next Page to be streamed from 6 May

Disney+ Hotstar will premiere its anthology Stories On The Next Page on 6 May. The film will comprise the short films Balloo & Mowgli, Reunion and Sunshower, all helmed by Brinda Mitra. 

Sharing the poster of the anthology on Instagram, the filmmaker wrote, "Accept. Forgive. Restart. A micro-anthology with three stories based on real-life experiences. Join us as we find a way to close one chapter and move on to write Stories On The Next Page."

Balloo & Mowgli will star Abhishek Banerjee and Ditipriya Roy, Reunion features Namit Das and Bhupendra Jadawat while Sunshower stars Renuka Shahane and Rajeshwari Sachdev.

The filmmaker also shared the pictures from the shoot along with a long note about how she came up with these stories.

According to the note, it was a conversation about closure with her parents that spurred the filmmaker into grabbing her diary and noting personal experiences and observations. "Next I knew, I had finished writing Balloo & Mowgli, the day after, Sunshower and the day after that Reunion. I was indeed surprised by how fast I could write these stories. In retrospect, I know it’s because I had a deep emotional connect with each one of them. Each has a part of me in it in some form. And I hope it resonates with you as well (sic)," she wrote.
