The Story Behind 11:17 PM
The film follows Keyaan, a famous travel blogger whose life begins to change after he experiences a disturbing recurring dream every night at exactly 11:17 PM.
In the dream, Keyaan finds himself in a different country outside India. He repeatedly encounters an unknown man standing with his back toward him. The man never speaks and never reveals his face, but each encounter feels disturbingly real.
As the visions become increasingly intense, Keyaan begins to lose his confidence in what is real and what is imagined. He seeks help from psychiatrists, but none of them can explain the mysterious recurring dreams.
Convinced that the dreams are pointing him toward something he must discover, Keyaan embarks on a solo international journey. His travel-blogging journey gradually transforms into a personal investigation into the mystery behind the visions.
His search eventually takes him to Vietnam, where he finally encounters the mysterious man from his dreams.
The man introduces himself as Arjun.
Then comes the shocking revelation: Arjun has been dead for years.
Keyaan is pulled into a terrifying psychological mystery where dreams, memories and reality begin to blur.
Why does a dead man appear to Keyaan every night at exactly 11:17 PM?
What connects Keyaan to Arjun?
And will discovering the truth save Keyaan—or make him the next victim of a mystery that refuses to die?
Ketan Pendse's Mobile Filmmaking Vision
With 11:17 PM, Ketan Pendse has combined international travel, psychological mystery, horror, adventure and mobile filmmaking into a single feature-film project.
The film's production demonstrates an independent filmmaking model in which a feature-length international story can be created using comparatively accessible technology while filming across different countries and cultural environments.
The USA Book of World Records certificate describes the achievement as an innovative contribution to independent filmmaking and international visual storytelling, recognising the creative and technical approach behind the project.
Recognition in the United States
The certificate presented to Ketan Pradip Pendse identifies him as the filmmaker behind the recognised achievement and carries the certification number USABWR1122.
The recognition adds another international milestone to 11:17 PM, following the film's ambitious journey from Pune to Vietnam, Thailand, Hong Kong and Macao.
For Pendse, the project represents more than simply shooting a film on a mobile phone—it reflects a vision of taking Indian independent filmmaking to international locations while exploring new possibilities in mobile cinematography.

The project is particularly notable for bringing together:
One Indian filmmaker + one English feature film + 4K mobile-phone cinematography + five countries/regions + international storytelling.
