After delivering gripping hits like Raazi and Talvar, acclaimed filmmaker Meghna Gulzar is back with another promising project. Titled Daayra, the upcoming crime drama is being backed by Junglee Pictures in their third collaboration with the director. The film promises to blend powerful storytelling with a sharp investigative edge — a genre Meghna has mastered over the years.
Leading the cast of Daayra are two powerhouse performers from different industries — Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran. This marks their first on-screen collaboration, and fans are already buzzing with excitement about the fresh pairing. While Kareena is no stranger to intense, character-driven narratives, Prithviraj’s pan-Indian appeal and acting range make this casting all the more dynamic.
The film is co-written by Yash Keswani, Sima Agarwal, and Meghna Gulzar herself. Currently in pre-production, Daayra is expected to go on floors soon. With a team like this behind the scenes and two versatile stars leading the charge, the film is already shaping up to be one of the most anticipated crime dramas of the year.
Produced under the banner of Junglee Pictures, with Vineet Jain and Amrita Pandey onboard, Daayra is set to explore the darker corners of justice, truth, and the human psyche — in classic Meghna Gulzar fashion. Stay tuned for more updates as the project unfolds!
