It is a gripping anthology featuring four real-life inspired stories of identity, resilience, and human connection, directed by Kabir Khan, Imtiaz Ali, Rima Das, and Onir.
Filmmaker Imtiaz Ali has kicked off his next directorial venture, an untitled new film starring Avinash Tiwary and Aditi Rao Hydari. The film went on floors in Mumbai on February 25, 2025.
Though the plot remains under wraps, reports suggest that the story will revolve around the emotional complexities of an extramarital affair.
