About Bhakshak’s Teaser
The teaser begins with Bhumi visiting a child centre in Munawwarpur, where she gets to know about the exploitation happening with young female children. The actress steps in the shoes of Vaishali Singh, who is an investigative journalist, who is aiming to bring light to heinous crimes. While the teaser doesn’t reveal many details, it shows Bhumi in a deglamourised avatar after her urban comedy Thank You For Coming last year.
Lastly, when the teaser is just about to conclude, Bhumi can be seen telling a girl, “Bachchon ke adhikar ke liye lad rahe hain hum, samajh rahi ho? (We’re fighting for girls’ rights, do you get it?)”. According to the teaser, the movie will premiere on February 09, 2024.

Talking about the movie, the director Pulkit opened up his thoughts about the film and said, “Our aim was to shed light on the harsh realities of society and spark conversations that lead to meaningful change. I’m looking forward to more people joining this important dialogue.” Meanwhile, The last digital project from Red Chillies Entertainment was the 2022 dark comedy ‘Darlings,’ directed by Jasmeet K Reen, which was a collaborative effort with lead actor Alia Bhatt’s production company, Eternal Sunshine Productions, and was also streamed on Netflix India.
