Actors Aahana Kumra and Sharib Hashmi will be seen in the pivotal roles in their new film Cancer. Sharib Hashmi, the first-time director will mark his debut in the film who is critically acclaimed for Gujarati films like Vitamin She and Short Circuit.
Cancer is expected to be released in the first quarter of 2023.
While speaking about the film, Sharib Hashmi averred, “The narration got me totally gobsmacked. I did not gauge what was coming and was on tenterhooks all through it. I have not seen anything like this on Indian screens and I genuinely believe that the script is our hero. I hope to do my very best to match up. Faisal is a man of few words and through our multiple discussions, he has already given me a lot of creative liberty to approach the character in a certain way.”
Filmmaker Faisal Hashmi adds that he has kept the story since a long time and is glad it will be finally on the floors.
“I have stayed with the film for a very long time and now that it is about to take off, it almost feels surreal. I am extremely grateful to Pankaj, Devansh and Sharib for showing faith in the script and I hope the film brings a lot of fulfillment to everyone associated with the project,” he concludes.
