Mumbai, Dec 28
The upcoming film ‘Baida’ has booked its release. The film is set to release in the theatres in early 2025. The supernatural thriller is set in the backdrop of India’s Hindi heartland.
It is helmed by Sudhanshu Rai and Puneet Sharma, and stars Sourabh Raaj Jain, Hiten Tejwani and Tarun Khanna.
Sharing a glimpse of what to expect this time, Sudhanshu Rai said, “Taking forward our signature of story being the king, ‘Baida’ is a wholesome entertainer, an intriguing tale of unexpected twists, turns and some larger-than-life characters that will keep the audience glued to the screen. It was the constant encouragement from my fans and followers to convert my stories into films that prompted me to make my acting and directorial debut with ‘Chaipatti’, and with ‘Baida’, the universe of unheard & unimaginable stories is just set to get bigger”.
For the first time, the genre of sci-fi & time travel is weaved in a story based in the Hindi heartland, which usually sets the premise of rom-coms and political dramas. The film is majorly shot near Gorakhpur in Uttar Pradesh. Bhojpuri, the dialect most prevalent in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, has also been featured prominently in the film.
