Taapsee Pannu, Kanika Dhillon Team Again for Netflix Original Action-Thriller Film ‘Gandhari,’ ‘Joram’ Filmmaker Devashish Makhija to Direct (EXCLUSIVE)

As a fan of power-packed performances and intriguing narratives, I am absolutely ecstatic about the upcoming Netflix original action-thriller “Gandhari”! With Taapsee Pannu and Kanika Dhillon teaming up once again, and the talented Devashish Makhija at the helm, this movie promises to be an exhilarating ride.

Actress Taapsee Pannu from India and the creative duo, Kanika Dhillon (writer-producer), are reuniting for an action-packed thriller movie titled “Gandhari,” which will be exclusively streamed on Netflix.

Renowned director Devashish Makhija, whose previous work “Joram” was showcased in numerous festivals such as Rotterdam, Sydney, Busan, Durban, and Mumbai, is set to take on the role of director.

The Netflix synopsis for ‘Gandhari’ offers an exhilarating tale brimming with unyielding resolve and deeply emotional conflicts, unfolding amidst a suspenseful atmosphere and thrilling action sequences. In this series, viewers will witness Taapsee Pannu portray a determined mother embarking on a crucial journey.

This represents the second time Netflix has joined forces with Dhillon’s Kathha Pictures, following their previous project “Do Patti.

Gandhari” is the sixth project from the successful collaboration between Pannu and Dhillon, which began with the Toronto premiere film “Manmarziyaan” in 2018. Their partnership has continued through Netflix originals like “Haseen Dillruba” (2021) and its sequel “Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba” (2024); ZEE5 Global film “Rashmi Rocket” (2021); and the Rajkumar Hirani-directed blockbuster “Dunki” (2023), starring Shah Rukh Khan.

Ruchikaa Kapoor Sheikh, head of original films at Netflix India, stated: “Gandhari” is an intense emotional tale with high personal risks. This unique action-thriller serves as proof of our dedication to presenting stories that are both distinctive and captivating. We can’t wait to collaborate once more with the talented team of Kanika Dhillon and Taapsee Pannu, who have previously delivered the smash hit “Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba.” Viewers have appreciated their work, and we are thrilled for them to explore the captivating layers of this fresh narrative.

There’s a unique magic that arises when Kanika and I team up for film projects,” Pannu expressed. “In ‘Gandhari,’ we delve into uncharted emotional territories, and I’m eager to delve into this intricate character. It’s been nine years since I did action, and I’ve longed for a script that would draw me back to it and push me beyond my limits. After portraying a spy, I sought something more profound, and ‘Gandhari,’ with its gripping tale of a vengeful mother, seemed like the ideal choice. Partnering with Netflix and Kathha Pictures allows us to create daring, distinctive, and influential stories. Working with Netflix has always been fulfilling, as it grants us access to a wider audience who share our enthusiasm for cinema.

Dhillon expressed: “Working on ‘Gandhari’ with Taapsee Pannu after the tremendous success of ‘Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba’ feels like a creative return to familiar grounds. This film delves into the heart of a mother’s unyielding love and ferocity, a force to be reckoned with, much like a tigress protecting her cub. Taapsee and I are joining forces for the first time in a raw, intense action thriller! We can’t wait to share this gripping tale of vengeance and redemption with you! Netflix has granted us the liberty to explore our creative limits and present this story in its purest form. I’m eagerly anticipating the moment when our audience experiences the emotionally charged, action-packed, thrilling epic – ‘Gandhari’!
