Deepti Naval and KK Raina play the parents whose lives are caught in the whirlwind investigation of their son, Prashantt Guptha plays the investigating officer.
Actor Prashantt Guptha says, “It is a very interesting character of a man who is investigating the past of this successful musician. I also only speak English in a Hindi film. When I did this film, I knew it would make this day memorable in the minds of audiences and I am glad it touched a chord with audiences here.”
Being a New Yorker, the American audiences matter a lot to Prashantt Guptha. He moved to India to follow his Bollywood dreams and is now back as actor and the Indian Ambassador for FOGSV.
