New beginnings, search for hope, and reflection on life amid the coronavirus pandemic is what drove the cast and crew of the “Unpaused” to make the Amazon Prime Video’s original anthology a reality. The streamer brought together filmmakers such as director duo Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, Nikkhil Advani, Tannishtha Chatterjee, Avinash Arun, and Nitya Mehra to make five short films for “Unpaused”, which were shot in compliance with government rules and regulations issued in Maharashtra for filming during the Unlock phase. The country went into a complete lockdown in March due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
