Naseeruddin Shah, Tabu, Konkona Sensharma, Arjun Kapoor, Radhika Madan, Kumud Mishra and Shardul Bhardwaj are coming together for Vishal Bhardwaj's son Aasmaan’s directorial debut Kuttey (2022).
Vishal announced the film online with a quirky motion picture that shared the film’s details. The poster features the ensemble cast with dogs heads, lined up against a wall. The gunshots in the theme music indicate that this isn’t going to be a happy family story.
ना ये भौंकते हैं, ना ग़ुर्राते हैं… बस काटते हैं!

Aasmaan has previously directed the short films The Thief (2017) and Murder On The Deccan Express (2017). He has assisted his father on the films Kaminey (2009), 7 Khoon Maaf (2011), Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola (2013) and Pataakha (2018).

Kuttey is currently in the pre-production stage and is expected to go on the floors by the end of the year. No details have been revealed about the film's storyline.
