The teaser is out and in the teaser, we see Nawaz talking about making his son Aadi a serious man, whom the world won’t understand but will respect. In the teaser’s video, Nawaz says, “Ye hai Mumbai. Iske bade bade buildings me baithe hain kuch bade bade serious men.
Aise log jo simple si cheezo ko serious le jate hain. Aise log jo condom ki dots jaise cheezo pe question karte hain, Jinhe hum salam jarur karte hain, isliye mai apne bete Aadi ko aisa hi ek serious men banaega (This is Mumbai and there are a few serious men sitting in its big buildings. Those people who have weirdest questions but we still salute them. And that is why I want my son Aadi to become one such serious man).”
The film also stars Aakshath Das, Shweta Basu Prasad, Nassar and Indira Tiwari.
Talking about the film, Nawazuddin says, “This is my third project with Netflix and returning to the streaming service always feels like homecoming. I am excited about this film as I waited almost 20 years to work with Sudhir Mishra. It’s a dream come true.”
