The film revolves around three women going through their mundane lives, representing human condition, in a chawl, starring Nimisha Nair, Sangeeta Agrawal and Usha Chauhan.
'Amar Colony' was the first project from Himachal Pradesh to make it to NFDC Film Bazaar바카라s Co Production Market in 2018.

Excited about the World Premiere, the debutant director Siddharth Chauhan of award-winning short films, Papa and Pashi says, "I am thrilled to know that my film is going to Premiere at the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival. Amar Colony is a dream come true. In 2012, I dreamt of making a feature film in Shimla. I was 22, starry eyed but dead serious about it. I felt it would take me roughly 10 years to gain some experience and make my 1st feature in Shimla! Amar Colony is finally releasing - exactly after 10 years. I was right but I regret why I couldn't think of making it earlier".
Sharing his joy, the producer Nisheeth Kumar says, 바카라Amar Colony has been a labour of love and passion. It captures a lurking underworld of human desires and fears through the intertwining lives of three women in the underbelly of a chawl in a small town in the lower Himalayas바카라.
From the festival team's perspective, "Amar Colony, is life itself with its psychological conundrums, its scandals, its politics. Its inhabitants embody a multigenerational humanity, bound together in a limited space. They meet, they talk, they cheat, they have secrets and they share meals, they love each other, abuse each other, believe in god and refuse to die. A delicate and unique portrait of an exotic community that in fact represents all of us, this film is a satire on mankind."
