About Daayra

Talking about Daayra, the actress earlier shared, "As I celebrate 25 incredible years in Hindi cinema, I'm thrilled to announce my next film, Daayra, with the incredible Meghna Gulzar in the director's chair. I've long admired her work, from Talvar to Raazi, and to be directed by her is a dream come true. Working with Prithviraj is also a highlight. Daayra promises to be a cinematic experience that challenges and inspires."

The crime-drama thriller explores the complexities of contemporary society, delving into themes of crime, punishment, and justice. With Meghna Gulzar at the helm and Prithviraj playing a pivotal role, audiences are eagerly awaiting the powerhouse performances.
