Sudhir Mishra's 'Afwaah' to release on May 5

Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra's upcoming directorial venture 'Afwaah', starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Bhumi Pednekar, will have a theatrical release on May 5, the makers announced Wednesday.

"If you run, it will follow you. If you hide, it will find you... An #Afwaah will never stop chasing you... Releasing in Cinemas on 5th May, 2023," the studio posted on its social media handles.


Producer Anubhav Sinha spoke about the film, "It’s been an enriching experience collaborating with Sudhir on this important film. I believe 'Afwaah' is a very important film that accomplishes our objective of producing films that are high on content "

Director Sudhir Mishra revealed, "What if the monster chasing you is a bloody rumour? Basically you’re screwed because there’s no place to hide. The monster will always get there before you. What is worse is that sometimes the monster comes in the shape of a friend or a lover or a parent. If this is not the basis of an f-ing good thriller, then I don’t know what is! Presenting my reaction to our times: Afwaah."


'Afwaah' also features actors Sharib Hashmi, Sumit Kaul, Sumeet Vyas, Rockey Raina and TJ Bhanu in pivotal roles.
