Bilingual Production and Creative Team

Shot simultaneously in Hindi and Telugu, the film's story and screenplay have been jointly crafted by Adivi Sesh and Shaneil Deo.

Anurag Kashyap on His Role

On being part of the film, Anurag said that this role is both fun and challenging for him, and that achieving the same impact in both languages is a challenge he is thoroughly enjoying. "Playing a police officer who is an Ayyappa devotee is both fun and challenging. The conundrums of duty versus dharma, and to go about doing his job with a dry sense of humour, is fantastic. I am truly looking forward to playing this character in two languages, shooting in Hindi, as well as in Telugu. To get the same impact in both languages is the challenging part, something I am thoroughly enjoying," he said in a press note.

Release Date

The film is slated to release in theatres on March 19, 2026. (ANI)
