Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi has launched the highly anticipated trailer of the high-octane thriller Taskaree: The Smuggler Web at a star-studded event in Mumbai on Wednesday, January 7.

During the launch, the actor described her character in the film and also teased a potential romance angle.

Emraan was asked if the series features a love story besides the thriller. Responding to the media question, the actor said, “Do khubsurat ladkiyan hai iss [series me]... Of course, love story milegi (There are two beautiful girls in this [series]... of course, there will be a love story).”

He added, Main rahoon aur love story na ho ( I'm there, and there is no love story!!!).”

However, the actor also talked about the music of the film. He recalled how he went to the filmmaker Neeraj Pandey and asked him to add one song in every episode of the series. However, the filmmaker rejected the idea.

Emraan added, “And I thought I would lose the show. But I'm fine, I'll manage without the songs. The background music is very good in this.”
