Junglee Pictures has such a strong track record. From Raazi to Badhaai Ho, they pick great stories. Partnering with Gupta, who knows how to build tension, is a winning combo. Expecting another award-worthy film. 🎬

This is exciting, but I hope it's not *another* gritty, dark drama. We need variety. Gupta is talented, but can he do something a bit more uplifting? Junglee's films are great, but a balance would be nice. Just my two paise.

"Narratives grounded in reality" - this is what Bollywood needs more of. Less fantasy, more stories that reflect our society. Gupta's films always have a point. Junglee, please take your time with the casting. No rushed decisions!

Waiting for Raid 2 for so long, and now this new project! Good things come to those who wait, I guess. Hope this film has the same tight screenplay and powerful performances. The combo of Gupta and Junglee is fire. 🔥

Interesting partnership. As someone who enjoys Indian cinema, I find Junglee's choices very thoughtful. Gupta's direction adds a layer of realism that's compelling. Looking forward to seeing what "questioning the status quo" means in this story.
