Overview
- The film releases in Indian theatres on Friday, May 8, 2026, after premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2021.
- Writer-director Ritwik Pareek draws on Rajasthan’s Bullet Baba legend near Jodhpur to tell how a reappearing bike sets off a shrine and a swelling cult.
- Reviews highlight bold, visual-first storytelling with a long highway opener, neon pink-blue lighting, rhythmic montages, and a driving score.
- The self-financed indie uses non-star local actors and lands in cinemas with executive-producer support from Anurag Kashyap, Vikramaditya Motwane, Nikkhil Advani and Vasan Bala.
- Critics call it original and sharply satirical yet note stretched pacing and repeated beats, a mix that could still widen space for risk-taking regional films in mainstream halls.
