The actress stars in Bejoy Nambiar’s survival thriller alongside Adarsh Gourav
March 12, 2025: After much anticipation, Shanaya Kapoor has finally stepped into Bollywood with the announcement teaser of Tu Yaa Main, directed by Bejoy Nambiar. The film, a survival thriller, also stars Adarsh Gourav and follows the story of social media influencers trying to escape a man-eating crocodile.
Reddit Reacts: ‘Not Bad,’ But Expectations Are Low
While Shanaya’s debut has been long awaited, the internet’s reaction has been surprisingly positive. Given the recent underwhelming performances by other star kids like Khushi Kapoor and Ibrahim Ali Khan in Nadaaniyan, netizens feel Shanaya’s entry doesn’t seem as bad in comparison.
💬 “At the moment, I believe anyone can do better than Khushi Kapoor.”
💬 “The bar is so low that even a mid performance will make her stand out.”
💬 “Funny how debuting last has worked in her favor!”
What Makes Tu Yaa Main Stand Out?
The Bejoy Nambiar touch is evident in the teaser, with stunning visuals, a retro remix of Chori Chori Yoon Jab, and an intense, gripping atmosphere. Fans appreciate the cinematic quality of the teaser, which elevates the project beyond typical debut films.
Upcoming Projects & Release Date
Apart from Tu Yaa Main, Shanaya Kapoor is also filming Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan opposite Vikrant Massey. Tu Yaa Main is produced by Aanand L. Rai and is set to release on Valentine’s Day next year.
