Yami plays a stewardess while Kaushal looks to be a passenger on the plane. The stills released along with the announcement indicate that the two are in a romantic relationship.

At the announcement event, the makers spoke about how this film came about.

Producer Dinesh Vijan shared, “Yami and Sunny both have been exceptional in their last respective releases. To cast them together and bring this film to life has been an absolute delight. Maddock’s past association with Netflix for Mimi (2021) and Dasvi (2022) has been very successful and now we’re looking forward to releasing Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga on their platform and have a global audience for the film leveraging their reach.”

Producer Amar Kaushik added that he was keen to collaborate with Netflix for this global release. He said, “Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga is a very special film for me as it is my first as a producer with Maddock Films. Dinoo and I both loved the script when we heard it for the first time itself.”

Speaking about the film, director Ajay Singh elaborated, “Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga traces the story of a heist that goes wrong when a plane gets hijacked, and the series of events that follows. It has been a great experience working with Maddock on this film and I am elated to collaborate with Netflix and present the film to an audience across the globe.”
