Following the announcement, fans shared their excitement about ‘Nishaanchi’ on social media. One fan wrote, “Always come with something fresh.. Anurag sir (sic).” Another commented, “Moment hai.” A user shared, “Anurag Kashyap hi ek aisa director hai jiski naam par log films dekhte hain. (Anurag Kashyap is the kind of director people watch films for, just because of his name.)”
Reacting to the filmmaker’s return to gritty storytelling, a fan remarked, “After wandering around here and there making films like choked, almost pyar, dobara. That no one will remember. Finally u r back to ur roots (sic).”
Opening up about the project, Anurag Kashyap said in a statement, “We wrote ‘Nishaanchi’ in 2016. Since then, I have been looking to make this film the way it should be, and was looking for a studio who trusted me to do that, whole heartedly. Amazon MGM loved it, believed in it, and became the wall behind us. This is exactly what happened with all my films that people love – they were backed by great producers and great Studios. ‘Nishaanchi’ is a story full of raw human emotions, love, lust, power, crime and punishment, betrayal, redemption and the consequences of it all.”
‘Nishaanchi’ is produced by Ajay Rai and Ranjan Singh under Jar Pictures, in association with Flip Films, and will be distributed by Amazon MGM Studios.
