Shergil’s character is another prime focus of Neeraj Pandey’s story shortlists three prime suspects – Avinash Tiwary, Tamannaah Bhatia and Rajiv Mehta who were in charge of the diamond exhibition. A typical heist story that is unravelled through a long running investigation over the span of 15 years, and the story transcends to Abu Dhabi, following the suspect Avinash Tiwary.
Tamannah Bhatia in a mysterious and homely role that is equally deceiving and adds layers to the already tangled story while Avinash Tiwary in his comfort zone, fits perfectly for the role of a suspect who has secrets and doesn’t plan on giving up. Jimmy Shergil is back after starring in ‘Phir Aayi Haseen Dilruba’, just warming his seat for a successful comeback.
