Alia Bhatt backs a new gen rom-com: Prime Video announces original film Don’t Be Shy

Prime Video has officially announced its upcoming original film Don’t Be Shy, marking a landmark collaboration with Eternal Sunshine Productions, the banner founded by Alia Bhatt and Shaheen Bhatt. The coming-of-age romantic comedy was unveiled on January 30 and promises a warm, youthful take on love, friendship, and growing up.
