Meghna Gulzar’s crime thriller Daayra starring Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran has officially wrapped its shoot. Insider sources confirm that filming is complete and the project is now moving into post-production.
This marks Meghna’s third collaboration with Junglee Pictures after 2015’s Talvaar and 2018’s Raazi. Daayra is co-produced by Junglee Pictures and PEN Studios and is being locked for a 2026 release.
Reports suggest that Kareena and Prithviraj are set to play fierce, layered and enigmatic characters. While plot details remain confidential, media updates hint at a darker tone and morally complex storytelling.
Meghna Gulzar has co-written the screenplay with Sima Agarwal and Yash Keswani. The film explores how a single heinous act triggers chain reactions that divide society, blur moral lines, and challenge conventional ideas of crime, punishment, justice and truth.
This aligns with Meghna’s signature storytelling style which includes nuanced, challenging narratives that push audiences to think deeper. Many believe Daayra will continue her streak of socially engaging cinema.
No trailer or poster has been released yet, but anticipation is rising. Viewers are hopeful that Daayra will bring back strong suspense, psychological depth and mystery to Bollywood when it arrives in 2026.
