Netflix will release Alia Bhatt’s first film, in which she will star alongside Shefali Shah, Vijay Varma, and Roshan Mathew. Netflix made the announcement on Tuesday with a video featuring Alia, Shefali, Roshan, and Vijay. Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment and Alia’s Eternal Sunshine Productions will produce the film, which will be directed by debutant Jasmeet K. Reen.
Alia Bhatt and the cast of Darling are asked if ‘Darling is coming to Netflix?’ in a Netflix announcement video. While the actors do their best to avoid answering the question, Alia gives up near the end of the video and says, “See you soons!” “Hey, darlings,” the actor captioned the video on Instagram. “See you guys soon.” “Can’t wait my darling!” said film director Karan Johar.
Darlings is a Mumbai-based company. It’s a dark comedy about a mother and daughter who face extraordinary circumstances and try to make it in life against all odds. Vishal Bhardwaj, a filmmaker and composer, composed the film’s music, and veteran lyricist Gulzar wrote the lyrics.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better feature film debut—working with a pool of versatile and talented actors has been an absolute pleasure,” Jasmeet, who directed the 2016 short film The Right Note, said in a statement. I’m ecstatic that Netflix is distributing Red Chillies and Eternal Sunshine around the world.”
Alia, who posted photos from the Darlings set to Instagram, said the film holds a special place in her heart. “This is my first film as a producer, and it’s for Red Chillies.” “We are extremely pleased with how the film has turned out, and we hope that it will entertain and engage audiences all over the world,” Alia said.
Alia was most recently seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi, in which she played the lead.
