As someone who lived through those times, I remember the gold smuggling and the economic uncertainty. Manoj Bajpayee is such a versatile actor - from gangster roles to now an RBI Governor! Hope they show the real struggles of ordinary Indians during that period. Waiting for June 2026! 🙏

Interesting concept, but I hope they don't glorify the economic policies that led to the crisis in the first place. The 1990s reforms were necessary but painful for many. Also, releasing in 2026 is too far away - why such a long wait? Still, Manoj Bajpayee + Amit Trivedi music is a solid combination.

As an American who studied India's economic history, this looks fascinating. The RBI Governor during that period made some tough decisions. Manoj Bajpayee has that authoritative presence. The teaser gives me 'The Big Short' vibes but with an Indian twist. Looking forward to it! 🇮🇳

Oh wow, this brings back memories of my father discussing the 1991 economic reforms at the dinner table. We were kids then but understood the gravity. Manoj sir as RBI Governor will be brilliant - he has that gravitas. But why release in 2026? The wait is going to be painful! 😩 Still, take your time and make it authentic.
