In R. Balki’s upcoming thriller Hush!, a serial killer on the loose carves stars from the foreheads of movie critics before killing them. “He gives stars to whoever gives them,” says Sunny Deol, who plays the cop investigating the case, in the trailer for the film that was released earlier today. Phew! Thank god we don’t give stars.
The two-minute trailer doesn’t reveal much about the plot, thankfully, but introduces us to the characters played by Sunny, Dulquer Salmaan, Shreya Dhanwanthary, and Pooja Bhatt. As Sunny as the lead cop pieces together the puzzle, we see Dulquer and Shreya as a loving movie couple. The trailer says that the killer is an artist who takes revenge on film critics. Is Dulquer the victim or the killer?
The film also draws attention to the story of what happened to the last director of legendary cinema icon Guru Dutt, Kaagaz Ke Phool, when released. The 1959 film received a harsh critical response and ended Guru’s career as a director, only to be hailed as a classic.
Songs from another Guru Dutt masterpiece pyaasa (1957), as Jaane Kya Tune Kahi, Ye Duniya Agar Mil Bhi Jaye to Kya Hai and Sar Jo Tera Chakraye are also featured in the trailer.
The film is written by Balki, Raja Sen and Rishi Virmani. SD Burman, Amit Trivedi, Sneha Khanwalkar, Aman Pant are credited as the music composers, while Sahir Ludhianvi, Kaifi Azmi and Swanand Kirkire pen the lyrics.
The film has photography by Vishal Sinha and editing by Nayan HK Bhadra. Hush!produced by Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, Anil Naidu, Dr. Jayantilal Gada and Gauri Shinde, is set to hit theaters on September 23.
