Director Umesh Bist has released a trailer for Gyaarah Gyaarah, a highly anticipated series on ZEE5’s YouTube channel. The cast includes Raghav Juyal and Kritika Kamra, and the story is about two estranged police officers who must work together to solve a 15-year-old murder mystery after being reunited by means of a walkie-talkie that had died long ago but came back momentarily.
A star-studded cast and an engrossing narrative
The trailer features Dhairya Karwa as well as Kritika Kamra alongside Raghav Juyal in major roles. Every day at 11:11 am, for some unknown reason, an inactive phone rings, which adds suspense to this soap opera. The opening line of the trailer features a voiceover that says, “Time is an illusion. Time conceals many mysteries” thus setting the mood for the show.
Producer’s excitement and viewership expectations
Karan Johar is the producer of this film; he posted its trailer on Instagram with words that hinted at its theme “Can a glitch in time crack the unsolved crimes? Gyaarah Gyaarah premieres 9th August on ZEE5.” This post tags every cast member which signals that this OTT thriller was made by several people working together. This is Raghav Juyal’s second project with Karan Johar and Guneet Monga Kapoor after their previous hit film KILL.
Interesting storyline involving time-travel
Guneet Monga Kapoor, Apoorva Mehta, Achin Jain are co-producers of Gyaarah Gyaarah directed by Karan Johar. It recounts how two cops from different periods get connected through a talking device with peculiar timing – it only comes alive at 11:11 PM for sixty seconds. With each case solved by senior detective Shaurya Anthwal (Dhairya Karwa) and young officer Yug Arya (Raghav Juyal), the past and present change. Kritika Kamra’s Vamika Rawat is a bridge between these times, unbeknown to her about the extraordinary connection between a preceding and latter character.
Actors contemplate their roles
“I must say that entering Gyaarah Gyaarah is a daredevil course for me. This has been an unusual role for me—it has forced me out of my comfort zone. In addition, playing a cop in this mind bending suspense thriller felt like a rollercoaster ride with its own twists and turns. Moreover, being able to work with visionaries like Karan Johar and Guneet Monga Kapoor was nothing short of a dream come true – their directorial inputs and creative energy on set were truly inspiring. This show will have ZEE5’s audience experience time, suspense and human emotions in ways that do not make sense but increase curiosity about the narrative line in the story.”
“To be part of Gyaarah Gyaarah has transformed me as a person completely. I began my journey on a reality TV show, transitioned effortlessly into hosting and comedic roles. Now as I continue to take leaps in Bollywood, I am so thankful to Guneet who saw this potential within me and always pushed me towards doing serious characters. Being cast as a police officer for the very first time seems like a heavy responsibility; it is something different from what I have done before thus making it quite overwhelming for me. It provides an opportunity for me to showcase another side of my acting talent and I cannot wait to see what we have done with Gyaarah Gyaarah on ZEE5 – it is going to be all new for me and hopefully the audience too!”
Dhairya Karwa said; “Living inside the world of Gyaarah Gyaarah has been an amazing journey altogether! The concept revolving around time manipulation and how it affects our choices is intriguing enough; however, playing this theme out within a movie production makes one feel really happy about it all happening around them. Working with such a talented ensemble cast under the direction of Karan Johar, Guneet Monga Kapoor and Umesh Sir has been a rare privilege. This project is different from anything I have ever done, it’s not just deep but also keeps you engaged throughout. Let ZEE5 audiences delve into this unique blend of thriller and suspense that will challenge our sense of what is real. In Gyaarah Gyaarah we will get to perceive time and destiny in brand new manners.”
Gyaarah Gyaarah premieres on ZEE5 on August 9th, with an intriguing plot, great cast and notable producers collaboration. It offers an opportunity to argue about fate and time in a different way from what we are used to so, if you are into thrillers don’t miss out!.
