Janhvi Kapoor, Gulshan Devaiah & Roshan Mathew to star in ‘Ulajh’

Junglee Pictures, the production house behind the critically acclaimed and popular spy thriller "Raazi," has recently announced their upcoming film titled "Ulajh." The movie is a stylized international thriller set in the intriguing and prestigious world of the Indian Foreign Services (IFS).

Directed by National award-winner Sudhanshu Saria, the film gives viewers a glimpse into the high-stakes world of international diplomacy. The production company has unveiled an impressive ensemble cast for the movie, including Janhvi Kapoor, Gulshan Devaiah (known for his roles in "Hunterrr" and "Badhaai Do"), and Roshan Mathew (famous for his performances in "Darlings" and the Malayalam film "Kappela"). The film also stars Rajesh Tailang, Meiyang Chang, Sachin Khedekar, Rajendra Gupta, and Jitendra Joshi, who are all powerhouse performers.

This patriotic thriller is scheduled to go on floors at the end of this month, and fans are eagerly anticipating the film's release.

Janhvi took to her Instagram account and shared a picture with the crew, and she wrote, "The price of secrets is higher in the world of Diplomacy. #Ulajh - Shoot begins at the end of the month 🎬"

Excited to be a part of Ulajh, Janhvi Kapoor says, - “When I was approached with the script of 'Ulajh', it instantly attracted me because as an actor, I am constantly looking for scripts that make me break out of my comfort zone and portraying a character based in the celebrated world of the Indian Foreign Services was just that. Just as the name of the film suggests, my character and the story, has so many layers, emotions, and parameters, which is challenging and exciting at the same time. I am thrilled for the audience to see me in this new role envisioned by Sudhanshu, who has such a fresh approach towards dealing with this genre. I am also looking forward to work with such talented co-actors and a development studio like Junglee Pictures for the first time.”

‘Ulajh’ follows the journey of a young IFS officer belonging to a prominent family of patriots, who gets embroiled in a dangerous personal conspiracy while far from her home turf, at a career-defining post. Written by Parveez Shaikh and Sudhanshu Saria, with dialogues by Atika Chohan, this new-age thriller promises to be unlike anything else audiences have seen in this genre.

Celebrating their recent success with films like Badhaai Do and Doctor G last year, Junglee Pictures is all set to enter 2023 with an exciting slate of films from various genres starting with, ‘Woh Ladki Hai Kahaan’, ‘Dosa King’, and ‘Click Shankar’ to name a few.
