Hunkkaar: The Road follows the narrative of a young girl, refusing to stay silent about the crimes she’s endured. Serving as a victim of sexual assault, she is expected to remain silent. However, she refuses to back down, creating the premise for this thrilling and bold experience. The trailer takes you through a world, with each scene sparking curiosity towards the build-up. As we keep watching, many characters make their presence known, revealing a much larger force at play.

The movie is directed by Karan D Kapadia, Nitya Mehra and Heeraz Marfatia. The creators include Karan D Kapadia and Nitya Mehra. Hunkkaar: The Roar is produced by Birla Studios and Applause Entertainment, in association with Purple Pebble Pictures, A Mangata Films production, and Priyanka Chopra Jonas being the Executive Producer.
 

Talking about the trailer, Priyanka Chopra Jonas said, “As a producer, I’ve always wanted to stand behind stories that have something to say, and Hunkkaar: The Roar is very much that. I also really believe in Nitya and Karan as filmmakers. I’m incredibly proud of what this entire cast and crew has created, and It’s been a privilege to be a small part of this journey. I hope the story stays with audiences the way it stayed with me.”

Fatima Shaikh plays the role of ACP Jasleen Singh Soni in Hunkkaar: The Roar. On her experience playing the character, she said, “What drew me to Jasleen was her ability to remain focused on her responsibility even as the world around the investigation becomes increasingly complicated. She is dealing with power, influence, public opinion, and the pressure that comes with a case of this magnitude, but she continues to search for what is true. Hunkkaar: The Roar gave me the opportunity to explore a character who is constantly navigating that difficult space between what you see, what you are told, and what you ultimately choose to believe.”

The protagonist of the film is Aneet Padda, playing the role of a 17-year-old sexual assault victim, Meenu Rawat. On playing Meenu, she said, “Meenu isn’t defined by what happened to her, but by what she chooses after. She’s young, complicated, and not always easy to understand. That’s what makes her real. Her one constant? A refusal to be silenced. I hope audiences see her vulnerability and the defiance at the heart of her journey.”

Upasana Konidela flaunted her spiritual side! She visited the sacred Kamakhya temple (Guwahati, Assam) and sought divine blessings on Friday. Her visit to the historic temple carried a simple yet striking message for women.

Expose the Devi. Destroy the DeviL

Interestingly, she played two words separated by just one letter; the message reflects a deeper thought. “Maa Kamakhya exposes the Devi & destroys the DeviL in us! New Beginnings. Divine Shakti Dharma Seva Karma,” Upasana captioned. She indicates that every woman carries within her the strength of the Devi and must find the courage to confront and destroy the fears, negativity and forces that diminish her power.

One of India’s most revered Shakti Peethas, the Kamakhya temple empowers women as sacred manifestations of divine power (Shakti). And Upasana is someone who believes that women should be recognised for their own achievements and professional contributions. She has been championing women’s empowerment, financial independence, and maternal-child health. Hence, her visit to the historic temple, an enduring symbol of feminine energy and transformation, made the message natural and significant.

While the ancient shrine is a powerful global symbol of divine feminine energy, creation, and strength, Upasana visited the temple to seek spiritual grounding and pay respects to the divine feminine. And her empowering message centred on the inner strength of women.

Embracing change

Upasana’s visit also symbolises a moment of renewal, embracing change. It’s a powerful message from a powerful place, signalling strength, transformation and new beginnings. The thought is closely aligned with her continuing work around women’s empowerment.

“The Devi is already within every woman. Sometimes we simply need the courage to recognise her, bring her forward and destroy whatever holds her back. Every ending also creates space for a new beginning.” She urges us to leave behind what no longer serves us, and Upasana also welcomes powerful new beginnings that are sure to unfold soon.
