Here is the complete report. Project Title: Ex Lover -2025 Production Banner: NavaRasa Hindi Originals Format: Short Film (40-45 minutes) / Digital Premiere Primary Language: Hindi (with Hinglish urban dialect) Target Audience: Adults 18-35 (Urban & Semi-Urban OTT Viewers) 1. Executive Summary Ex Lover -2025 is a psychological drama that dissects the ghost of a past relationship through the lens of Shringara (Love) corrupted by Raudra (Anger) and culminating in Shanta (Peace) . Unlike typical Bollywood breakup stories, this short utilizes the NavaRasa framework to assign a specific emotional color to each narrative beat. The "2025" in the title signifies not just the year but a futuristic, slightly dystopian Delhi where emotional suppression is a marketable commodity. 2. Core Logline In a 2025 Delhi where memories can be digitally archived and deleted, a cynical sound engineer agrees to erase her ex-lover from her neural cloud, only to discover that true Rasa cannot be coded out of existence. 3.
