Directed by Navjot Gulati, the film also stars Vikram Singh Chauhan and Vijay Raaz in pivotal roles.The trailer introduces Mrunal as Pooja, a young woman whose decision to reject a close friend’s romantic advances sets off a series of unsettling events. Huma plays Sana, a lawyer who becomes closely involved in the case as she attempts to piece together the circumstances surrounding Pooja and uncover what lies beneath the conflicting accounts. The film promises to be a gripping courtroom drama.Speaking about it, Mrunal said in a statement, “Pooja is a deeply layered character, and what drew me to both the film and her journey was the complexity of what unfolds around her. The role required me to navigate several emotional shades while consciously holding back the answers that the audience is meant to discover for themselves. It was an intense and challenging experience, but also an incredibly rewarding one.”Huma added, “The film explores how perception can shape the way we understand people and events, and how difficult it can be to separate assumptions from the truth. It was a powerful experience to be part of a story that is emotionally engaging while also asking uncomfortable questions about consent, responsibility, justice and societal judgement.”Produced by Maddock Films, Pooja Meri Jaan will be released on Zee 5 on October 2.
