Overview

  • The trailer introduces Robertsganj, Uttar Pradesh, as the setting for a brutal-murders investigation that uncovers multiple missing girls.
  • Arshad Warsi leads as Inspector Vishwas Bhagwat, with Jitendra Kumar as Sameer in an image-shifting role presented as more complex and ominous than his past work.
