Bonus (2020)

In the bustling city of Nashik, the Deodhar family presides over a thriving enterprise, spearheaded by the senior Deodhar and his son. Among them, young Aditya Deodhar, an economics graduate, enjoys the opulence that his family's wealth provides. However, his affluent lifestyle has shaped a perspective that challenges the company's traditional values, particularly the decision to reward the workers with a bonus, causing a rift between him and his grandfather. As the disagreement escalates, a unique challenge is proposed: Aditya must abandon his privileged existence and immerse himself in the life of an ordinary worker for 30 days, living without the luxuries he's always taken for granted. If he prevails, he will have the authority to retract the bonuses. Unyielding and eager to prove his point, Aditya accepts the challenge, embarking on a journey that transports him from his plush surroundings to the heart of Mumbai's slums. In this unfamiliar world, where every day is a struggle yet camaraderie and joy persist, Aditya finds himself amidst people who survive with far less, yet live far more. With the compassionate Minal at his side, he navigates the hurdles of this new existence. As the days unfold, Aditya's perceptions gradually alter, reshaping his understanding of life, labor, and the true value of a bonus. Bonus (2020) serves as a profound exploration of class disparities, the dignity of labor, and the transformative power of empathy, where a young man's challenge becomes a journey of self-realization and unexpected revelations.
