Janhvi Kapoor drops first look of her upcoming patriotic thriller Ulajh

Janhvi Kapoor has a lot of exciting films in her kitty. Speaking of which, she took to her official Instagram handle to announce her new project titled Ulajh.

Today, Junglee Pictures has announced the casting of their upcoming film Ulajah. To be directed by very talented National award-winner Sudhanshu Saria, the makers have unveiled a cast headlined by Janhvi Kapoor, Gulshan Devaiah, Roshan Mathew, Rajesh Tailang, Meiyang Chang, Sachin Khedekar, Rajendra Gupta and Jitendra Joshi.

The patriotic thriller is all set to go on floors by the end of this month.

In the first look of the film, we can see Janhvi standing in the middle. She looks stunning in a saree. The film follows the journey of a young IFS officer, belonging to a prominent family of patriots, who gets embroiled in a dangerous personal conspiracy while far from her home turf, at a career-defining post.

Excited to be a part of Ulajh, Janhvi Kapoor says, - “When I was approached with the script of 'Ulajh', it instantly attracted me because as an actor, I am constantly looking for scripts that make me break out of my comfort zone and portraying a character based in the celebrated world of the Indian Foreign Services was just that. Just as the name of the film suggests, my character and the story, has so many layers, emotions, and parameters, which is challenging and exciting at the same time. I am thrilled for the audience to see me in this new role envisioned by Sudhanshu, who has such a fresh approach towards dealing with this genre. I am also looking forward to work with such talented co-actors and a development studio like Junglee Pictures for the first time.”

Written by Parveez Shaikh and Sudhanshu Saria, with dialogues by Atika Chohan, this new-age thriller promises to be unlike anything else audiences have seen in this genre. Celebrating their recent success with films like Badhaai Do and Doctor G last year, Junglee Pictures is all set to enter 2023 with an exciting slate of films from various genres starting with, ‘Woh Ladki Hai Kahaan’, ‘Dosa King’, and ‘Click Shankar’ to name a few.
