While Article 15 was a scathing critique of the caste system in India, Anek is an action thriller.
The actor and director also released the first two working stills from the film. The pictures indicate that the unit has been shooting in the woods.
The film was announced in mid-March 2020, at the time when COVID-19 was rearing its ugly head in India.
Apart from Anek, Khurrana has Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui (2021) and Doctor G (2021) in the pipeline.
