Mumbai: The much awaited Red Chillies Entertainment and Alia Bhatt's Eternal Sunshine's production 'Darlings' is set to premiere on Netflix this year.
Produced by Gauri Khan, Alia Bhatt, and Gaurav Verma, the film is the debut full-length feature for director Jasmeet K Reen and stars Alia, Shefali Shah, Vijay Varma and Roshan Mathew in lead roles.
'Darlings' is a dark-comedy which explores the lives of a mother-daughter duo trying to find their place in Mumbai, seeking courage and love in exceptional circumstances while fighting against all odds.
It will also bring together music of Vishal Bharadwaj with Gulzar's lyrics.
Alia dropped a post on Instagran on Tuesday and said, “Darlings holds a very special place in my heart, it’s my first film as producer that too with Red Chillies. We are very proud and happy how the film has shaped up and we hope it will entertain and engage audiences world over.”
"I couldn’t have asked for a better feature film debut working with a pool of versatile and talented actors has been an absolute pleasure. I am delighted that Red Chillies and Eternal Sunshine are taking the film across the globe with Netflix," said director Jasmeet.
Producer and COO, Red Chillies Entertainment, Gaurav Verma shared, “A script nurtured inhouse, and later produced with the incredible Alia, and supported by a stellar cast in Shefali Shah, Vijay Varma and Roshan Mathew, helmed by Jasmeet, who has lot of promise, 'Darlings' is very special to all of us.
"Gulzar Saab and Vishalji have given soul to the film with the songs. We couldn’t have asked for more. I cannot wait for the audience to finally see the film," he added. (UNI)
