Hrithik Roshan teams up with brother Eshaan for upcoming comedy film 'Mess'
Mumbai, March 17
A new project backed by actor Hrithik Roshan has just been announced.
The actor and Prime Video have teamed up for a new comedy film titled Mess. The upcoming film will be produced under his banner, HRX Films, along with his brother, Eshaan Roshan.
According to a press release, Hrithik spoke about the collaboration and stated that the film project builds on the work the team has already started with the platform.
"Storm marked the start of something special with Prime Video, and Mess feels like a natural next step for us at HRX Films," said producer Hrithik Roshan. "Our partnership with Prime Video has allowed us to explore bold, innovative storytelling, and this project embodies that spirit perfectly. Rajesh brings a distinctive voice both as a producer and director, with a rare ability to blend comedy with compelling narratives."
The film follows the story of a group of robbers who break into the house of a man with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). As the night goes on, the robbers slowly realize that the situation inside the house is not what they expected, and they may be the ones who need to survive the night.
The screenplay for the film was originally written by American writer Paul Soter. The adapted screenplay and dialogues have been written by Kapil Sawant.
More details about the cast and release timeline are expected to be announced later.

Good to see Hrithik and Eshaan working together. Family collaborations often bring a special touch. Hope the adapted screenplay by Kapil Sawant adds a strong Indian flavor to the original American script.
Interesting premise. The success will depend entirely on execution and casting. Hope they don't rely solely on the gimmick and build proper characters. Prime Video's partnership is promising though.
As someone who enjoys clean, organized spaces, I can already imagine the robbers' frustration! 😂 Jokes aside, it's a fresh idea. Bollywood needs more of these original comedies instead of remakes.
Respectfully, I hope they handle the OCD aspect with sensitivity and not just for cheap laughs. Mental health portrayal in our films is improving, but we must be careful. Wishing the team the best.
HRX Films is really picking unique projects. After 'Storm', expectations are high. The cast announcement is crucial—hope they get actors who can pull off both comedy and tension. Waiting eagerly!
