After releasing successful short films like Arranged 1 & 2, Lovebirds, Maya Baidew, and The Radio Guy on the KC Digital Films YouTube channel, this time around the platform shifts its gears with AWMI, a dark short from film maker Samujjal Kashyap with Stuti Choudhury and Kamal Lochan in the lead.
With a carefully scripted exploration of the mind through multiple metaphors that are rendered alive with the brisk tempo, great music and crisp editing, AWMI offers a lot.
Kamal Lochan is expectedly impressive, but one wonders where Stuti Choudhury has been all this while as she delivers a scintillating performance leaving the audience wanting more.
The film is contemporary and urban. It’s dark and spins a web for the audience, telling them to deal with negative patterns before they become habits as habits are hard to break.
The story of the film has been written by young upcoming writer Rock Nobis while the dialogues have been written by Sasanka Samir. Asutosh Kashyap was the Director of Photography (DOP) while the editing was done by Gautam Mazumdar. The two departments that made the film really look stylish.

The film also has a special appearance by Lovebirds fame, actor Achinta Raj Kashyap and another by Rupa Barua. So far, the film has received a good response on YouTube, the production house said.
