About the trailer

The trailer begins with Kareena asking a number of suspects to reveal their exact location on the evening of November 14. Suspicions rise in the volatile community after the death of a boy, and a Muslim teenager is taken into police custody. In the midst of these tensions, Kareena's Jasmeet Bhamra, a detective and a mother, enters the scene and begins an investigation to understand what happened on that fateful evening. Everyone is a suspect. She is also blamed for creating an uproar in the community with her ongoing investigation. Will she be able to get to the truth?

More details

Kareena has revealed in multiple interviews now that she signed this film when she wasn't getting any good parts to play. Speaking with Variety in an interview in 2023, Kareena had even revealed that her character in the film is inspired by Kate Winslet's role in Mare of Easttown. She said, "I love Mare of Easttown and when Hansal came to me, I said this is something that I've really been dying to do. So we've molded a little bit on those lines, she plays a detective cop in that."
