Produced by Gaurav Dhingra, it’s a miracle that Stolen exists in the current circumstances of Hindi cinema—when we’re reading obituaries of Bollywood and theatrical exhibition every other day. The situation remains grim as OTT platforms turn away acclaimed films premiering in prestigious film festivals because they don’t have ‘stars’. Strangely, the most recognisable names in the film’s credit list are its four executive producers—Anurag Kashyap, Kiran Rao, Vikramaditya Motwane and Nikkhil Advani—who Dhingra brought on board to give the film one final push into the abyss of global streaming, where films/shows can disappear in a day or two. To their credit, Stolen made a noticeable splash—it emerged with glowing reviews and became the top-most watched film in regions outside India too.
