Sometimes the most unforgettable stories begin with the strangest images an abandoned ATM washed up on a beach, two completely different men standing beside it, and a mystery bizarre enough to instantly pull people in. That unusual setup forms the intriguing foundation of Pritam and Pedro, the much-awaited streaming debut of acclaimed filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani. Known for blending emotion, humour and deeply human storytelling in films that resonate across generations, Hirani is now stepping into the long-format streaming space for the very first time.
