Loev, a movie by Sudhanshu Saria, has travelled around film festivals and gained a lot of critical acclaim. The movie is available exclusively on Netflix. The synopsis of the movie on Youtube reads:

When hot shot, Wall Street dealmaker Jai (Shiv Pandit) thinks of putting some pleasure into his 48 hour business trip to Mumbai, Sahil (Dhruv Ganesh), his young, music-producer friend, drops everything, including his reckless boyfriend Alex (Siddharth Menon), to help him execute the perfect getaway.

Hiking the hills and canyons of Maharashtra, amidst half-attempted conversations and sudden silences, business calls and old jokes, the friends discover there is more than just time-zones keeping them apart. Things take another turn when Alex shows up with a new male-companion at his side, throwing up old conflicts and bringing unanswered questions to the fore.

LOEV is about this weekend between friends where chances are missed, truths evaded and among all the stumbles, the love that unexpectedly prevails.

Watch the trailer of the movie below, and catch it on Netflix.

Update: An earlier version of the article said the movie has not been released publicly but is available on Netflix now. The movie has been acquired by Netflix for a worldwide release and is the only platform where one can watch it. Loev debuted on Netflix on May 1
