This will be Bhumi's first collaboration with Sushant and she's damn excited to be a part of such intense project. Earlier when Bhumi was asked about the movie, she said "My next film has a lot going on. I can’t really talk about it. I can just say, this hands down is one of my most ambitious, one of the most special characters that I have played. The kind of satisfaction I’ve got and the amount I’ve learnt from this character, I’ve grown up on this film."  Sushant Singh Rajput's First Look From Son Chiriya is Messy, Rustic and Unbelievable!

Directed by Abhishek Chaubey, Sonchiraiya promises to be a power packed action film giving a glimpse of the glorious years of dacoits in central India. The film is extensively shot in Madhya Pradesh and is all set to release on February 8, 2019.
