Upstarts: An Indian Film on Entrepreneurial Setups

Good news for the long-awaited Indian audience is that Netflix India is bringing a good scripted film ‘Upstarts’ soon; the broadcast date of this film has been officially announced which is October 18, 2019. What to start is a million-dollar question, most people think of starting their own venture and if we live in an economy where all the options of success are available then only a new idea can help in bringing fame and wealth and that is the story of Netflix’s upcoming film Upstarts.

Here’s the official synopsis for Upstarts, via Netflix, “Upstarts is a bromance about three college graduates — Kapil (Painyuli), Yash (Rai) and Vinay (Kamal) — from small-town India, captivated by the startup mania sweeping the country. The three friends now want to set up their own company that will change the world, while making them pots of money, of course. As they enter the rollercoaster startup ecosystem of big dreams, big money, and bigger sharks, they face the biggest question: What has greater value, their dreams or their friendship?”

Produced by Bandra West Pictures, the film features Priyanshu Painyuli, Shadab Kamal, Chandrachoor Rai, Sheetal Thakur, Rajeev Siddhartha, and Swati Semwal, along with actor Eijaaz Khan, in lead roles. The film has been directed by Udai Singh Pawar, with Raja Krishna Menon as the Creative Producer.

On September 30, 2019, Netflix India has released a chilling trailer along with a short description of the series, “Three friends co-found a company with the hope of changing the world. But will this startup ruin their friendship before they make any real change?” The clip depicts how the three continue to brainstorm one idea after another and finally seem to settle with a phone application that serves as a delivery service for emergency medicines in what looks like a small town (Sitapur) in India.
