Interesting, though the description sounds more like an historical drama than a thriller

The yet-untitled movie is said to be based on the 1862's Maharaj Libel Case which arose when the plaintiff, Jadunathji Brijratanji Maharaj, a religious leader, filed a case of libel against a reformer and journalist Karsandas Mulji for writing an article in his Gujarati weekly newspaper. In the article, he questioned the values of a Hindu sect called the Pushtimarg or Vallabhacharya Sampradaya. The article was claimed to be libelous by the plaintiff. In particular were accusations that Jadunathji had sexual liaisons with women followers and that men were expected to show their devotion by offering their wives for sex with the religious leaders. The articles created a great stir in the community, and threw the parasites of their temples, and worshippers of the holy religious head, into consternation and fury.

Hrithik is believed to be playing the role of the social reformer and the editor of the newspaper while the casting for the rest of the characters are still underway.

Malhotra's film is said to be based on a true event and will see Hrithik playing a whistle-blower who exposes the Godman.

YRF is keeping the bot-base busy. Time for another boycott. Hindu khatre me hain 🤣

He directed Rani's Hichki

At first I thought it was Karan Maholtra but after he dropped Hrithik when he was recovering from brain surgery because he didn't want to wait a few months to film Shuddi - I don't think that's ever going to happen.

Mmm, knowing HR.. lol, wake me up when it's on the floor and/ shooting😆

Also, I kinda really like it when the script writers are mentioned early.. usually a good sign
