The trailer of Haseen Dillruba is out and it introduces us to Rani Kashyap (played by Taapsee Pannu) who is newly married to Rishu (played Vikrant Massey). Rishu loses his life in an explosion and Rani becomes the prime suspect in his murder case. How did she end up as a murder suspect? We find out in a series of hilarious footage about their arranged marriage and that Rani was having an affair with Harshavardhan Rane’s character who might or might not have something to do with the explosion. But fret not, there’s a capable detective tasked with solving the case – C.I.D fame Aditya Srivastava who seems convinced Rani is a murderer. Rani, on the other hand, looks like she regrets very little. The clip teases a love triangle, dark humour and a twisty whodunit.
Directed by Vinil Mathew, the film is written by Kanika Dhillon and features music by Amit Trivedi. The official synopsis of Haseen Dillruba reads – The gruesome death of a man rocks a small town and casts a shadow of suspicion on his wife. Is she an innocent victim as she claims? Or is she the mastermind behind a cold, calculated murder? What really happened? Nothing is as it seems in this unpredictable tale of love, seduction, and deception. This is #TheUltimateKaunspiracy
Revealing that she wasn’t the first choice for the lead role, Taapsee Pannu opened up about the “risky” role saying, “Haseen Dillruba was a film I had a very strong gut feeling about the day I heard the basic idea from Kanika. Unfortunately, I wasn’t the first choice for the film and it came to me after all their options were exhausted. And the good old saying that, if it’s meant for you it will come to you stands true for this case. It’s not just a beautifully written mystery, it has such wonderful characters involved which is candy in an actor’s hands. I am glad I got to experiment with my look and performance with this one because I am definitely not the go-to person for this kind of character conventionally and we all love to take risks here,”
Talking about the film, Vikrant Massey said, “Haseen Dillruba is the perfect mix of humour, quirk, revenge and romance. I hope it surprises the audience as much as it surprised me when I heard it first. It was an enthralling experience shooting for it,”
