Daayra, which began principal photography in September 2025, brings together Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor Khan and acclaimed actor Prithviraj Sukumaran in lead roles. The film reunites Gulzar with her trusted collaborators and promises a hard‑hitting narrative.

Described as a crime‑thriller that tackles deep‑rooted issues of crime, justice, and societal decay, Daayra is being positioned as a timely, relevant story. The makers say the film delves into “the age-old paradox of crime, punishment, and justice,” reflecting contemporary social realities.

For Kareena Kapoor Khan, Daayra marks her 68th film — a milestone she announced with enthusiasm, calling the collaboration with Meghna and Prithviraj a “dream team.” On his part, Prithviraj described his involvement as deeply fulfilling, praising the layered script and expressing confidence in the film’s resonance with audiences.
