Shiddat
Love story Shiddat will focus on the journeys of two couples. Director Dinesh Vijan said of the movie: “In our day and age where love is taken so lightly, it is difficult to imagine the lengths people would go for it. Shiddat is not only a story about love but the distance one travels for it.”
Lootcase
Comedy Lootcase was postponed a number of times before getting a release date in April which had to be postponed again due to the coronavirus. Now the movie, which sees characters on the hunt for a mysterious red suitcase, will come to a digital streamer soon.
