The teaser of the upcoming horror film ‘Chhorii’ starring Nushrratt Bharuccha was released this Tuesday. The Vishal Furia directed movie is all set to satiate the taste buds of the connoisseurs of horror and is a remake of the Marathi film Lapachhapi.
The protagonist of the film, Nushrratt Bharuccha had recently unveiled about how she got on board for this movie.
It all started when she went to meet her former producer Vikram Malhotra (Founder & CEO, Abundantia Entertainment) about whom she said, “He (Vikram) was my producer on ‘LSD’ when Balaji was doing it. Then he was my producer on ‘Pyaar Ka Punchnama’ when he was in Viacom and after that, so he’s known me for a while.”
As she entered the office, she got to meet producer Jack which well really well for her as she got to work with him. She said, “That day when I went to office, he asked me to step in and meet the producer Jack. I had no clue who Jack was, Vikram just said he’s somebody tying up with him for a film.”
She continued, “The first thing Jack asked me was my thoughts on Indian society and I was like, oh! I further discussed with him things that I felt we need to improve, whether it’s education or population control, electricity or water supply or just basic things that people need to get on an everyday basis. So, this is how we chatted about India for like an hour (sic).”
After the long conversation, Producer Jack realized that she would be the most perfect actress for the main lead role. She said, “I think I was at the right place at the right time, and it was just a coincidence that Jack sat down in front of me before his flight and chatted with me. And just like that I was on for the film. Simple. It was just one conversation.”
The film will revolves around the journey of Sakshi (played by Nushrratt) from the city to a remote village where she experiences paranormal things around her. The movie ‘Chhorii’ is produced by T-Series, Crypt TV, and Abundantia Entertainment and will stream on Prime Video across 240 countries and territories worldwide from November 26.
