The film, bankrolled by Jatpatma Cinemas, has Bollywood actor Kabir Singh who debuted with Ajithās Vedalam as the baddie locking horns with Dhanshika.
Says the director, ‘It is a high-octane action thriller laced with other filmy ingredients including romance, emotions, humour etc. Dhanshika essays a challenging role and even as I wrote the script, I felt no one other than her could do justice to the lead protagonist character. The major advantage is she has trained in martial arts and that she can do risky stunts without needing a body double.’
