"Great to see her delivering another powerful performance": Zack Snyder's shout out to Huma over 'Baby Do Die Do' trailer

Mumbai, June 22

Actor Huma Qureshi has received a shout-out from Hollywood filmmaker Zack Snyder over her performance in her upcoming film 'Baby Do Die Do'.

On Monday, the trailer of the film was unveiled. After catching a glimpse of Huma's action-packed role in 'Baby Do Die Do', Zack penned a note filled with appreciation for her.

"Just watched the trailer for *Baby Do Die Do* and loved what I saw. The film looks ambitious, cinematic, and incredibly well-crafted. Having worked with Huma before, it's great to see her delivering another powerful performance," he wrote.

Zack had earlier worked with Huma in the 2021 Netflix zombie heist film 'Army of the Dead'.

Speaking of 'Baby Do Die Do', the film is slated to hit theatres on July 3.

In the two-minute and twenty-seven-second trailer, Huma Qureshi portrays the role of a hitwoman who kills people with her umbrella stealthily at public places. It begins with Huma shooting a man with her umbrella inside a bus.

The trailer further introduces different characters of the story which are played by Seema Pahwa, Sikander Kher, Chunky Pandey, Rachit Singh and others. Sikander Kher plays the role of an antagonist in the movie, while Rachit Singh portrays the love interest of Huma in the movie.

With redemption in her eyes as she calmly watches the building burn, Huma appears to be bruised at the end of the trailer.

The movie is directed by Nachiket Samant and is produced by Saqib Saleem.

I'm a film student from Mumbai and honestly, seeing Zack Snyder appreciate an Indian actor's work is so validating. He directed Army of the Dead which was fun, but Huma really stood out in that film. So happy for her! 😊

The umbrella-as-weapon idea is quite unique! But I hope the film doesn't just rely on style - we need good writing too. Huma is a talented actress and deserves strong scripts. The trailer looks promising though. 👍

As a guy who's been watching Indian cinema for decades, it's thrilling to see our actors getting recognition from Hollywood directors. Zack Snyder's appreciation is not just for Huma but for the whole Indian film industry's growing global footprint. Jai Ho! 🎬

I saw Huma in Army of the Dead and she was fantastic even in a supporting role. This trailer has such a cool vibe - very John Wick meets Indian masala. Can't wait to see it in theatres on July 3! 🔥

Honestly, Zack Snyder's praise is great and all, but I hope the filmmakers have focused on making a solid story rather than just a 'cool trailer'. Too many action films lately have been all style and no substance. Let's see if Baby Do Die Do delivers. 🤔
