What Is Anarkali About?

The premise of Anarkali without spoilers.

Shanthanu, a former navy officer, is haunted by a past love. Fifteen years prior, he left the navy due to a relationship with a young woman named Nadira. Because she was only fifteen at the time, they agreed to wait until their love was proven true to her Nawabi father, who was also Shanthanu’s commanding officer. After losing contact with Nadira for two years, Shanthanu’s search for her leads him to Kavaratti, in the Lakshadweep islands.
