Phantom film's High Jack is touted to be the first stoner comedy of Bollywood.

The film revolves around a bunch of first-time hijackers, trying to hijack a plane. The first-timers along with the passengers accidentally get high, which results in a series of very funny, whacky series of events.

Later the film showcases the aftermath of what happens when passengers get stoned on the flight which further leads into a series of madcap adventures.

Interestingly even Hollywood film 'The Hangover' is based on the lines of similar genre and madness.

We can also proclaim that 'High Jack' is Bollywood's ultimate answer to 'The Hangover'.

The Hangover tells the story of Phil Wenneck, Stu Price, Alan Garner, and Doug Billings, who travel to Las Vegas for a bachelor party to celebrate their friends Doug's impending marriage.

However, Phil, Stu, and Alan wake up with Doug missing and no memory of the previous night's events and they have to find Doug before the wedding can take place.

If we take the plots of both films into consideration, we can surely deduce that both the film's plot is based on madcap adventure and its fresh take on comedy.

The recently released trailer which showcases some madcap scenes and a unique concept, all happening in the sky has garnered love and appreciation from across the quarters.

High Jack marks the entry of Viu, the leading international OTT Video Service, into films.

The film stars an ensemble cast featuring Sumeet Vyas, Sonnalli Sehgal, Mantra, Sarthak Kakar, Kumud Mishra, Radhika Bangia, Priyanshu Painyuli and Adhaar Khurana.

Produced by Phantom films in association with Viu,High Jack directed by Akarsh Khurana is slated to release on 20th April, 2018.
