Ali Fazal and Shriya Pilgaonkar's "House Arrest" will release on Netflix on November 15.

Also featuring Jim Sarbh and Barkha Singh, "House Arrest" brings to life the concept of JOMO (Joy Of Missing Out).

"House Arrest" is jointly directed by Shashanka Ghosh and Samit Basu. The film is produced by Trilok Malhotra and KR Harish of India Stories Media & Entertainment Private Ltd.

It is the story of a man -- trapped in his own fears -- who locks himself at home, only to find that while he can restrict his interaction with the world, he can't keep the world from entering his domain.

Ali feels "House Arrest" has a fantastic script.

"It's witty, very fresh and for me, selfishly, the character is very arched and layered. So it was a fun time on sets to play this part. Even though it is a comedy, it is complex and I got to go on set everyday and do something new and fresh even though it was all one place," he said at the time of the announcement.
