The trailer of the anthology film is an engaging watch ad it showcases the life of different people reacting to the 21-day lockdown implemented in India in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The trailer showcases tidbits of the lives of different characters and definitely builds up intrigue in the viewers as to how these different stories will pan out but are based on one event which affected many people's lives, thus, allowing the film to have one common link to all different stories.

The trailer does not give away much about the five short films but ends up building a narrative of how the lockdown affected people living distinctive lives from one another.
