Director Aarti S. Bagdi shared, “With Chalti Rahe Zindagi, we aimed to capture a unique moment in history that impacted us all. The pandemic forced us to pause, reflect, and confront truths we often overlooked. Through the intertwined stories of our characters, we explore how crises can reveal both the best and most challenging aspects of human nature. This film is a tribute to human resilience and the connections that bind us, even when physically apart. I believe audiences will see parts of themselves in these characters and find inspiration in their journeys.”
