Official Trailer and Plot of Archies
The Anglo-Indian community provides a unique perspective on the group of youngsters navigating love, heartbreak, friendship, and rebellion in the Indian rendition of the well-loved classic. The film Archies takes place in the fictional hill town of Riverdale in 1960s India. The more than two-minute clip opens with the introduction of the main characters, Betty (Khushi), Archie (Agastya), and Veronica (Suhana), along with the gang as they navigate adolescence with flair, fun, and music. Like all stories, though, there’s a twist at the end, and the friends will need to come together even more to preserve their town, community, and, in the process, themselves.
