The traditional expectations of an Indian family in the South Pacific (NZ) are confronted in this short drama written and directed by Mandrika Rupa. A young Indian woman living in a West Auckland housing estate seems caught between two irreconcilable sets of expectations. Naya Zamana shifts back and forth from modern to traditional. It incorporates what an immigrant may experience of both traditional and modern expectations. It gives a brief glimpse of Indian immigrants in the South Pacific in the mid 1990s and an evolving pulse is sensed. This new beat is what is meant by "Modern Times".
