Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele: Release Date, Cast, Where To Watch

Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele: The OTT space in India is known to not shy away from conversations on gender and sexuality. How many of these conversations does the space get right is another matter altogether. But what matters is that we now have a medium where content revolving around the LGBT community and the issues it faces are no longer novel.

Upcoming Disney + Hotstar film Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele, starring Zareen Khan in the lead, seems to be the latest offering in this space. This road movie tells the story of a lesbian woman and a gay man who go on a road trip to Himachal Pradesh’s Mcleodganj from Delhi. Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele promises to defy the stereotype "Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus".

At the New York's HBO South Asian Film Festival, the film won the Audience Choice Award and its lead Anshuman Jha won the "Best Actor" jury prize at the Rajasthan International Film Festival as well.
