Story of 11:17 PM

The film follows Keyaan, a famous travel blogger whose life takes a disturbing turn when he begins experiencing the same mysterious dream every night at exactly 11:17 PM.

In each dream, Keyaan finds himself in a different country outside India. There, he sees an unknown man standing with his back turned toward him. The mysterious figure never speaks and never reveals his face, yet every encounter feels terrifyingly real.

As the dreams become increasingly intense, Keyaan begins questioning his own understanding of reality. He consults psychiatrists in an attempt to find an explanation, but none can identify the cause of his recurring visions.

Convinced that the dreams are leading him toward an undiscovered truth, Keyaan begins a solo international journey, combining his work as a travel blogger with a personal investigation into the mystery.

His search eventually takes him to Vietnam, where he encounters the mysterious man from his dreams.

The man introduces himself as Arjun.

But Keyaan soon discovers an impossible and terrifying truth—Arjun has been dead for years.

From that moment, Keyaan is pulled deeper into a psychological mystery in which dreams, memories and reality begin to merge.

Why is a dead man appearing to Keyaan every night at exactly 11:17 PM?

What is the connection between Keyaan and Arjun?

And will discovering the truth save Keyaan—or turn him into the next victim of a mystery that refuses to die?

Mobile Filmmaking Meets International Storytelling

With 11:17 PM, Ketan Pendse combines international travel, psychological mystery, horror and adventure with mobile-phone filmmaking.

The project represents an independent approach to filmmaking in which an entire feature film was created across international locations using a mobile phone as the primary cinematography medium.

The Dubai Book of World Records certificate describes the achievement as an innovative contribution to independent filmmaking and international visual storytelling.

For Ketan Pendse, the recognition places 11:17 PM among his distinctive filmmaking projects and highlights the possibilities of creating ambitious international cinema with accessible technology.

A Milestone for Independent Filmmaking

The recognition of 11:17 PM by the Dubai Book of World Records is particularly notable because the film combines three ambitious elements: an international multi-country shoot, English-language feature filmmaking and complete mobile-phone cinematography.

Rather than treating the mobile phone simply as a production convenience, the project uses it as the central filmmaking tool while travelling through multiple countries and locations.

Ketan Pendse's 11:17 PM therefore stands as an example of how independent filmmakers can use modern technology to pursue large-scale stories across international borders.
