Taking to Twitter, the filmmaker wrote, “Because standing up against bigotry is the only way to defeat it. A story of our polarised times #Faraaz in cinemas on Feb 3.” Along with the credits for the movie, he also released an exciting new poster with Aditya Rawal in it. While pointing his rifle back towards the hostages, the actor is shown in the scene glancing at another man.

Produced by T-Series, Anubhav Sinha’s Benaras Mediaworks, and Mahana Films, the next Hindi and English movie will be released soon. Zahan Kapoor, the grandson of actors Shashi Kapoor and Ramesh Sippy, is introduced by Faraaz in addition to Aditya Juhi Babbar Soni and Aamir Ali in the major cast. The movie also introduces Sachin Lalwani, Jatin Sareen, Ninad Bhatt, Harshal Pawar, Palak Lalwani, and Ressham Sahaani.
Ahead of the film’s world premiere in London, Hansal said, “Through that attack, it’s a look at our world and also a deep dive into what religion means to different people. It is a deep dive into the minds of young people. When I read the story of the people who attacked the bakery, and the people were trapped, I found it incredible – it’s a story of youth and a story of our times.”
