MUMBAI, Aug 3 — Prominent filmmakers and long-time friends Imtiaz Ali and Anurag Kashyap have teamed up to present Bobby Beauty Parlour, an upcoming coming-of-age short film that explores the nostalgia of small-town friendships.
Directed by Shashwat Dwivedi, the short follows childhood best friends Eelu and Manu as they spend a final afternoon together trapped inside a neighborhood beauty parlor. The narrative captures the pair drinking, bickering, and reflecting on their bond as time slips away.
For Ali, the story evoked personal nostalgia. "The most spectacular moments of life don’t scream, but remain a part of our character forever," Ali said in a statement. "The film got me remembering my own small hometown, my adolescent decisions, and friends that I always carried with me."
