A woman-centric film, ‘Lockdown’ has created significant anticipation as it is based on a true story.
Trailer Insights
The trailer opens with Anupama Parameswaran, who portrays Anitha, expressing her fear of going home, hinting at a troubling issue she can’t discuss with her family. Compounding her struggles are unwanted advances from men.
As a 21-day nationwide lockdown is announced to contain the COVID outbreak, Anitha is forced to stay home. Her increasingly anxious behaviour raises concerns for her parents, particularly when her mother notices Anitha frequently checking her phone and losing her temper.
The trailer also depicts Anitha and her friend trying to reach out to a doctor, only to discover he is isolated due to contracting the virus. Additionally, Anitha’s desperate attempts to borrow money from friends worry her parents, who question her intentions.
The trailer concludes with Anitha apologising to her father, promising not to repeat her actions.
