Adah Sharma, who was last seen in Commando 2 (2017) playing the cop Bhavana Reddy, has signed for her next with actor Neil Nitin Mukesh. Neil also makes his debut as a producer with this thriller film and it will mark the directorial debut of Neil’s younger brother Naman Nitin Mukesh.
Commenting on her role, Sharma said in a statement, “It’s interesting since I’m playing a fashion entrepreneur and I have always maintained how fashion and style is very innate to my persona. I instantly connected with my character that lends an emotional graph to the film. Though fashion comes easy to me, it's tough to look glam and still ensure that the audience connects with the character emotionally.”
Meanwhile, speaking about his maiden production, Neil said, “Attempting to produce a thriller drama genre [film] which is quite popular in Hollywood but hasn’t been really explored in India has been quite a daunting task. Our entire casting is quite offbeat because we don’t want to embrace a tried and tested formula. There are so many stories to be told, so many new faces to be discovered and I’d like to use NNM Films as a platform to showcase raw talent.”
It is maiden film together for Sharma and Neil. Neil was last seen in the horror comedy Golmaal Again (2017). Naman has been assistant director on his brother’s film 3G – A Killer Connection (2013).
