Speaking exclusively, Kapoor explained his creative pull: ‘Genre films excite me, especially murder mysteries this time. Yet, the real magnet was the emotional violence simmering before the crime. Picture close-knit friends and family—smiling faces, shared drinks, festive vibes—but underneath, grudges fester until they explode into the bizarre.’

Vinay Pathak embodies Sohrab Handa, a brash, quick-witted bully who provokes everyone around him without mercy. The plot kicks off at an intimate getaway party. Casual chats and games give way to discomfort, culminating in Sohrab’s savage murder deep into the night. Suspicion ripples through the group, exposing long-held animosities.

Ranvir Shorey, who shares the screen with Pathak, emphasized the film’s moral gray areas. ‘No clear heroes or villains here. Regret, envy, rage—every role is layered with these, making the narrative unpredictable and engaging. Rajat’s vision elevated the experience.’

The cast is a powerhouse: Walusha De Sousa, Saurabh Shukla, Neel Bhupalam, Koyal Purie, Chandrachur Rai, Palomi Ghosh, Rajat Kapoor, and more—over 15 performers bringing intensity to the screen. Backed by Applause Entertainment and Mithya Tokiz, this thriller dives deep into relationships under pressure.

Releasing on ZEE5 on April 10 in Hindi, ‘Everybody Loves Sohrab Handa’ is poised to captivate audiences seeking smart, suspenseful entertainment with emotional punch.
