While I appreciate the effort, I hope this isn't just PR stunt. Many actors claim such things but the final performance doesn't reflect the struggle. Let's see if the transformation translates on screen.

The first look poster has me intrigued! Divya's simple look is refreshing compared to the usual glam roles. Also, Neil in a suit with gun - interesting combo 😄 Hope the quirky comedy delivers!

Living in slums for few days isn't same as actually being poor. These stars go back to their luxury lives while real slum dwellers struggle daily. But still, better than those who don't even try to understand.

The black thread around her neck is such a small but authentic touch! My nani used to wear that too. Little details like this make characters believable. Excited for this one! 💫

As someone who's visited Lucknow slums during NGO work, I wonder if this experience will help bring attention to their real struggles beyond just being a film backdrop. Hope the movie has some social message too.

Umesh Shukla's direction + this interesting premise = potential hit! The poster gives me 'Stree' vibes - comedy with mystery
