A Sinister New Adversary Emerges
Rani Mukerji reprises her powerful role as the relentless Senior Inspector Shivani Shivaji Roy. This time, her investigation leads her into the dark world of missing children.

Prasad's chilling performance has instantly captured the audience's attention, making her character a major talking point.
