Daayra, produced by Junglee Pictures and PEN Studios, marks Meghna Gulzar’s return to the crime genre after critically lauded films like Talvar and Raazi. Reuniting with Junglee for the third time, Gulzar promises a gripping, socially resonant narrative—this time digging deep into the harsh realities of a hard-hitting crime drama set against a layered, emotional backdrop.
Kareena, captioning her Day 1 video post with “Send love and blessings,” looked pumped as she stepped into yet another powerful role—her 68th film and counting—continuing her streak of choosing challenging, character-driven projects. Prithviraj, known for his commanding screen presence and recent pan-India success, adds further gravitas to the story. It’s a rare pairing, and fans are already buzzing about their on-screen chemistry.
The film also boasts a stellar crew, including writers Yash Keswani and Sima Agarwal, with Vineet Jain, Dr. Jayantilal Gada, Amrita Pandey, and Dhaval Gada on board as producers. With filming now underway, and the combined cinematic weight of Kareena, Prithviraj, and Meghna Gulzar steering the narrative, Daayra is shaping up to be one of the standout films of 2026.
