The film recently held a special trailer preview event, giving fans and critics their first look at the highly anticipated project, which stars Abhishek Bachchan in what is being described as a bold new avatar.
Produced by Ronnie Lahiri and Sheel Kumar under Rising Sun Films and Kino Works, I Want to Talk explores the complexities of modern-day relationships, personal struggles, and the human condition. Sircar, known for his ability to craft emotionally resonant stories with a strong social consciousness, is expected to bring his signature style to this narrative. The film touches on sensitive themes while blending absurdity with emotional depth, showcasing life’s challenges in a way that is both thought-provoking and occasionally humorous.
The screenplay, written by Ritesh Shah, is expected to make an impact with its sharp dialogue and nuanced portrayal of the characters’ inner conflicts. Abhishek Bachchan plays the central character, a man at a crossroads in life, navigating complex relationships and personal turmoil. This role marks a significant departure for Bachchan, who will be seen in a more layered, perhaps darker character compared to his previous work.
In addition to Bachchan, the film boasts an ensemble cast that includes Pearle Maaney, Ahilya Bamroo, Jayant Kripalani, and Kristin Goddard. Each actor is expected to bring depth and richness to the narrative, while the legendary Johnny Lever adds his distinctive touch of comedy to balance out the film’s more intense moments.
I Want to Talk is set to release in theatres on November 22, 2024, and the buzz surrounding the film’s trailer and preview has already piqued the curiosity of moviegoers. Given Sircar’s past successes with films like Vicky Donor and Piku, expectations are high for this one. The film’s mix of dark humour and emotional drama is sure to strike a chord with audiences looking for a more introspective and unconventional cinematic experience.
