'Yes Papa' movie trailer: Jackie Shroff, Hema Malini, Zeenat Aman, Vivek Agnihotri heap praises

The makers of ‘Yes Papa’ today unveiled the trailer of their upcoming film that revolves around the subject of child abuse. Directed by Saif Hyder Hasan, it stars national award winner and veteran artist Ananth Mahadevan and Geetika Tyagi in the lead with Divya Seth Shah, Sanjeev Tyagi, Tejaswini Kolhapure, Nandita Puri and others, in pivotal roles. The film delves into the life of a daughter who becomes a victim of abuse at a young age, perpetrated by her own father.

The trailer portrays the haunting presence of Ananth Mahadevan’s character looming over his daughter, who eventually finds herself on trial for his murder. It raises poignant questions, including whether one can discern the scars of deep-seated trauma by looking into the victim’s eyes and soul when evidence is lacking.

It’s a role that challenged me, but more importantly, it’s a story that needs to be told to protect our children.”
