The film is written and helmed by Kanishk Varma, while it's shot and edited by Pratik Deora. Going by the trailer, Gulshan Devaiah can be seen playing the role of a cop, who is charged with tracking down and arresting a serial killer who’s periodically hunting down women and also cutting their legs.

Moreover, Kunaal Roy Kapur is apparently the prime suspect in this whole situation. However, the trailer shows how he manages to convince everyone that he’s not the killer. And since time is running out, it’s up to Gulshan Devaiah to trust on his gut or the word of a person he doesn’t know anything about to find the real murderer. Overall, the trailer has a dark tone and promises to be an intriguing mystery thriller.
