Darshana Banik is set to play a leading role in
Vikram Bhatt’s upcoming Hindi film
Viraat, a mystery-thriller set against a historical backdrop. The film also features Mithun Chakraborty’s son,
Namashi Chakraborty, in a pivotal role.
Set during the British colonial era, the story revolves around an attempt to demolish a temple in northern India, which is met with strong resistance. The narrative unfolds amid a tense and suspenseful atmosphere. Anupam Kher and Neena Gupta will also be seen in pivotal roles.
As the film progresses through production, industry watchers are curious to see whether audiences still connect with Bhatt’s signature style of storytelling. With a fresh pairing of Darshana and Namashi, and a mysterious, historically rooted plot, the film is expected to generate considerable interest upon release.
The film is currently in production, and a release date has yet to be announced.
