The trailer of a film or a show, for matter is usually three minutes or a little longer than that. The trailer of ‘Barot House’, the new Zee5 original show is one and a half minute long and yet, it manages to leave a lasting impact and succeeds in getting you curious about the plot of the film. As one sees in the trailer, the Barot family consisting of a man (Amit Sadh), a woman (Manjari Fadnis) and their two children, live happily together until one day when the daughter is found to be dead.
The trailer itself has the beats of a thriller and perhaps, it is a good thing that they have kept it short as it is a suspense drama and just in those 45 seconds we get enough information about the world the film is set in. One also gets a brief idea about the primary characters and also feel a little intrigued as to what their hidden agendas could be.
The writer of the film is Sanjeev K Jha, who has also written the Sidharth Malhorta – Parineeti Chopra romantic comedy ‘Jabariya Jodi’ that is slated to hit the screens next month. It would be interesting to see the kind of narrative he manages to weave around in this thriller. ‘Barot House’ starts streaming from 7th August on Zee5.
