Earlier, Anurag revealed writing Nishaanchi in 2016 and since then, he has been "looking to make the film the way it should be, and was looking for a studio who trusted me to do that, whole heartedly."
He said Nishaanchi is a "story full of raw human emotions, love, lust, power, crime and punishment, betrayal, redemption and the consequences of it all."
The Gangs of Wasseypur director feels fortunate to find "good people, superb actors and beautiful crew to tell this story in the best possible way".
The filmmaker also said that working with Amazon MGM Studios was an "immensely rewarding and beautiful experience" that reminded him of his "early days of filmmaking."
"We’re excited, nervous, and can’t wait to share the film with the audience to experience when it releases in theatres this September," he added.
Nishaanchi marks Anurag's comeback as a director after his 2023 film Kennedy, which received critical acclaim.
