The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

One Friday Night is a 2023 Hindi-language suspense thriller film directed by Manish Gupta starring Raveena Tandon, Milind Soman and Vidhi Chitalia, produced by Jio Studios. The film had a direct-to-OTT release on JioCinema on 28 July 2023. One Friday Night is the first film in which Raveena Tandon and Milind Soman have been paired opposite each other. Vidhi Chitalia was earlier seen in Manish Gupta’s 420 IPC in a supporting role. Impressed with her acting skills, the director decided to cast her as the leading lady alongside Raveena Tandon. The director describes One Friday Night as "A relationship drama that’s plotted like a Hitchcock-esque suspense thriller…" One Friday Night was shot in 25 days in the monsoon months of July and August on an isolated hilltop at the shores of Pawna lake. The director filmed many scenes in natural rain to create a feeling of realism. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
