MX Player’s Wishlist is a bittersweet journey of two lovers and how they deal with life but more importantly how they deal with death.
MX Player’s Wishlist is the story of Shalini (Hina Khan) and Mohit (Jitendra Rai) who are your typical middle-class couple who get lost in the chasm of work that piles up on them every day which forces them on a mundane routine in life.
They work extra hard just like many of us in the hopes of a bright future but forget to live in the present moment. All of that changes when life deals them a big blow. Humbled by the unpredictability of life they go on a journey to fulfil their wishes or to complete a ‘Wishlist’ which they created a long time ago.
The trailer and underlying theme of this film is something that a lot of people can relate to as we have all become like zombies who go about our work and give undue importance to our work rather than our innermost desires in a bid that over time when we have finally accumulated enough resources or wealth, we will be able to enjoy our lives to the fullest.
One should be prepared for the future, but one must also learn to live in the present, and Shalini and Mohit learn this the hard way when Mohit is diagnosed with a third stage tumour in his spinal cord and has a maximum of 2-3 months to live.
MX Player’s Wishlist will premiere on the platform on 11th December.
