Phaans (2017)

Phaans is a melodramatic short movie depicting pre-conceived notions of considering anyone with apprehensive appearances as unwelcoming and potential threat to the society. An individual crosses path with a man with such appearance and pursues him to notice suspicious activities which further leads to spread of rumour by this individual. The thought itself is heart wrenching and revolves around social injustice and ignorance. Should physical appearances be allowed to exemplify someone's character? What happens to the family when someone is obliterated in a fake encounter? It is not just the system which is responsible but somewhere deep down we, as a human being, are also responsible.
