Akshay Kumar, Jackky Bhagnani and Ranjit Tiwari together gave Bollywood a gripping thriller with Bell Bottom, and now the trio are back for a spine-chilling story of a serial killer.
A well-placed source within the industry has exclusively approved BollywoodLife that Cuttputlli is an intense and nerve-wracking adaptation of real-life serial killer Anatoly Yemelianovich Slivko from the Soviet Union, just that the film has shifted the setting of the story to Kasaulii.
Opening up about joining hands again with Jackky Bhagnani and Ranjit Tiwari, Akshay Kumar said, “I have never come into this kind of genre, where I have to catch a serial killer. And the interesting thing is, the film is about catching a serial killer, so the film is not about physical attributes, it has a lot to do with mind as well. Because the killer is playing a mind game, and the entire narrative is very interesting, as it reveals one thing after another, and that is what makes this kind of thriller, more interesting.”
Besides being produced by Bell Bottom producers Jaccky Bhagnani and Deepshikha Deshmukh, Cuttputlli is also written by Bell Bottom’s Director, Ranjit Tiwari and will release on 2nd September in Disney+Hotstar and Hulu for international viewers.
