Second Hand Review:A Short ZEE5 Film That Brings Out The Insecurities Of Love And Marriage

In the era where live-in relationships, divorces, and remarriages are normalised, the Versova Hustlers and Red Chillies Colour bring to you a unique tale of love…or should we say, unrequited love? The short film, starring Abhishek Bannerjee , Lakshya Kochar and Parul Gulati, is thirteen minutes of peeping into the world of insecurities that jealousy and miscommunication bring about. The story begins with a happily married couple, but do they have a happily-ever-after?

Watch the film here:

The film showcases the bond that a couple share, the responsibilities, the love, and the insecurities. The protagonist marries a girl named Beauty and true to her name, the woman has an ethereal aura. She can be seen draped in saris with the pallu over her head, signifying respect for her culture, and defining that the couple belongs to a well-cultured background.

The protagonist reveals a few dark secrets from his past including his previous marriage to a woman named Lata. Apparently, he has been cheated upon before and he can still feel the sting. This has made him bitter and he feels jealous as well as insecure as he tries to control his wife and her communication with his best friend. But this leads to a shocking new fact! Is his wife actually having an affair?

The ending shows how the insecurity that seeps into a relationship between two people can kill the essence of the relationship and the people involved as well. In times when it is easy to get misguided and lose track of oneself, the tale Second Hand brings a fresh perspective and gives a raw message within a time period of just 13 minutes!
