“It is a revenge drama that surrounds two families and an incident that ignites a storm. With love and revenge as a strong motif, the story will take you through an emotional wild ride. This has been a passion project from the word go and I really hope the audience will acknowledge our labour of hard work,” Nambiar said in a statement. Samrat said all the characters in the film are extremely passionate, something which will reflect on the screen. Sarbh described the film as a “thrilling investigation of male relationships”. “Their strength and depth, on one hand, and the cycles of abuse, violence, and deep-seated helplessness, on another,” the Sanju actor said. Rane, who made his Bollywood debut with the 2016 romance drama Sanam Teri Kasam, described the film as a “wild ride”. Kharbanda said Taish was one of the most passionate projects she had worked on with an extremely talented set of co-actors. “The millennials will absolutely relate to the story, everyone has been to a wedding that has had its fair share of drama and madness. Relationships will be tested and trust will be broken,” the Housefull 4 actor added.
