Production

Gourab Chatterjeet indicated in an interview that he identified very much with his character: ”Sanjay, a college-goer like I am in real life. He is fun-loving and full of energy. Sanjay goes to Darjeeling on a vacation with friends, where he gets intimate with his girlfriend and then gets entangled in an MMS scandal. I could relate to it even more because Sanjay is a student of St Paul’s School in Darjeeling, where I studied.”[2]

Reception

A negative review wrote: ”Eti does not break any new ground in filmmaking, nor does it try to get to the core issue of voyeurism, pornography and their social impact. A little more sensitivity and a lot more depth was needed to mirror the flip side of technology and the impact it has on its victims.”[1]
