My friend @TheJohnAbraham, one of the nation’s favourite action heroes is bringing his incredible influence to a genre he's totally mastered. This time, he's telling a different kind of story through action, showing just how deeply this genre can convey meaningful cinematic experiences today.”

Known for making films like Kal Ho Nah Ho, Katti Batti, Salaam-E-Ishq and Patiala House Advani's last directorial venture was in Batla House which was released in 2019.  Talking about the the same the Lust Stories 2 actress mentioned, “What's even more exciting, personally to me, is that Nikhil Advani is returning to the director's chair after 6 or 7 years, which adds yet another layer of anticipation to our film. I can’t miss on mentioning #Sharvari here and how I just can’t wait for y’all to see her kill it on the big screen yet again!”
