Actor Sunny Kaushal who was last seen in Gold is all set to play the lead in Shaailesh R Singh’s Hurdang. It is a love story inspired by true incidents set in 1990s Allahabad. Directed by Nikhil Bhatt, Hurdang also stars Nushrat Bharucha and Vijay Varma.
Sunny Kaushal is the brother of the Uri: The Surgical Strike star Vicky Kaushal, who is most loved for his performance in the film. Vicky will be next seen in the Dharma Productions Horror Series Bhoot.
Speaking about the cast of the film, Shaailesh R Singh revealed, “It’s a young, restless love story from the 90s. People in 1990s were innocent and vulnerable. They didn’t have the advantage of technology the way youngsters have now. There was a deep desire to fight for your cause and claim your right. Sunny, Nushrat and Vijay fit in quite naturally. Sunny and Nushrat play students coming from different ideologies and backgrounds, but a couple destined to be together. They play childhood lovers who have grown up together. Both Sunny and Nushrat bring innocent and palpable energy, naturally into the story.”
Director Nikhil Bhatt also giving an insight into the plot of the film said,” This is a story inspired by true incidents. In the year 1990, as a kid, I saw thousands of youngsters getting involved in a fight for their rights. They fought for two whole years. They were angry on being taken for granted and for two years their lives came to a standstill. Every other day there was a bandh or a dharna. The students agitation was not politically motivated; they were fighting for their rights Lots of lives were lost and lots of lives were rendered directionless. They say, love stories coming out of duress stand tall. Hurdang is a love story set in those times.”
After Mental Hai Kya and Jabariya Jodi which are both 2019 releases, producer Shaailesh R Singh is set to begin the shoot of his next film, which will be produced under the banner of Karma Media and Entertainment. Hurdang is all set to go on floors on July 1, 2019.
