After the blockbuster success of the fan-favourite film, Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba, the dynamic duo, Kanika Dhillon and Taapsee Pannu are collaborating once again on the upcoming film, Gandhari. This action-thriller film is set to explore a different kind of love — the profound bond between mother and child. Written by Kanika Dhillon, Gandhari promises a riveting storyline filled with relentless determination and intense personal stakes, set against the backdrop of gripping mystery and high-powered action.
The makers of the film shared the announcement of the film. Expressing her bond with Kanika on sets, Taapsee said, “There’s a special kind of magic that happens when Kanika and I come together to work on a film. With Gandhari, we’re venturing into new emotional depths, and I’m thrilled to explore this intense character. I did action 9 years ago, and I’ve been waiting for a script that would bring me back to it and challenge me in new ways. After playing a spy, I was searching for something deeper, and Gandhari, with its powerful story of a mother driven by revenge, felt like the perfect fit.”
Sharing her excitement for this new project, Kanika said, “After the immense love for our film Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba, starting Gandhari with Taapsee feels like a creative homecoming. The film dives deep into the essence of a mother’s unwavering love and ferocity. Don’t mess with a tigress’ cub, because she will destroy you! Taapsee and I are coming together for a fiery- raw -action thriller for the first time! And we are excited to bring this powerful tale of revenge and redemption! I’m very excited for our audiences to experience this emotionally charged , action packed – thrilling saga – Gandhari!”
