On July 28, actress Huma Qureshi celebrated not just another year of life, but a powerful new chapter in her cinematic journey. Marking her birthday, her brother and fellow actor Saqib Saleem unveiled the teaser of their debut production under the Saleem Siblings banner — the edgy neo-noir dark comedy titled Baby Do Die Do.
And if the teaser is any indication, audiences are in for something bold, bizarre, and refreshingly original.
In Baby Do Die Do, Huma Qureshi transforms into Baby Karmarkar, a character who walks the line between mystery and mayhem. Billed as India’s first desi female assassin, she’s not just breaking stereotypes — she’s blowing them up with style and precision.
The teaser opens with a charged conversation between two men trying to piece together where “Baby” vanished. Cut to Huma — dressed in black, wielding a rifle with cold determination, lurking in the shadows of a parking lot. One man calls her a “female hitman.” The response? “No… hitwoman.” That one correction sets the tone: this is her world now.
Saqib Saleem, who also turns producer with this film, shared the teaser with a deeply personal note for his sister. He praised not just her performance but her complete emotional investment in the role:
“Through the madness, the silence, the chaos—you didn’t just act in this film, you became it… You’ve never needed noise to make an impact, and now the whole world’s watching.”
His words reflect more than sibling love—they speak to the creative fire behind this new venture.
Directed with flair and tension, Baby Do Die Do blends satire, emotional breakdowns, and stylized action into what promises to be a genre-defying ride. It’s not just about guns and grit — it’s about identity, suppression, and power, all wrapped in the guise of a darkly comic thriller.
Starring alongside Huma are Chunky Panday and Sikandar Kher, who appear to play pivotal roles in the layered narrative. With its snappy dialogues and razor-sharp tone, the film feels like an unapologetically Indian spin on the neo-noir genre — a welcome shake-up in the mainstream Hindi film space.
Baby Do Die Do is the first film under Saleem Siblings, the production house launched by Huma and Saqib to champion stories that are brave, new, and personal. If this teaser is any proof, they’re kicking things off with high stakes and even higher ambitions.
The film’s first glimpse has already stirred curiosity online, with fans applauding Huma’s fierce transformation and Saqib’s heartfelt backing. From the stylized visuals to the layered subtext, this teaser has set the tone for what could be one of the year’s most unconventional releases.
While the release date is yet to be officially announced, Baby Do Die Do has already sparked a buzz for doing something few Bollywood productions dare to: put a complex female character at the center of a dark, twisted world—and let her own it.
