"He doesn’t understand the depth of it initially, but after going through a personal loss, he takes it upon himself to bring the whole system down. That is Sanket’s journey from beginning to end. The cast is really great. Everyone has worked so hard, which everyone will see, once the trailer gets out. This was just an announcement teaser. The script was really exciting and the director, too was someone with whom it was great to work with. It was a really easy thing for me to say a yes because of these factors,” he adds.
