This is among the most engaging and riveting stories Ive read in a while and I am thrilled to be essaying what I believe will be a landmark role in my filmography. I am also looking forward to working with some formidable partners Soumik, an amazing storyteller, Ellipsis, the new kids with a pulse on clutter-breaking content and marketing, and T-Series, with whom I share an old association on music and films. Says Soumik Sen, This film is for every Indian student who is under pressure to excel in a competitive environment. Todays youth will hugely relate to Cheat India.Says Bhushan Kumar of T-Series, We are increasingly treading the path of strong creative partnerships, and in line with that, we are excited about co-creating Cheat India , which, we believe, will reflect the new-age appetite for compelling content rooted in realism.
