Shakuntala Devi premiered on 31st July 2020 on Amazon Prime Video streaming across 200 countries and was met with great acclaim and audiences’ love poured in abundance for this biopic of the Indian mathematics genius who was given the title of the ‘human computer’.

Their passion for telling compelling stories and commitment to a director’s vision are rare to find. We have a very different story coming up this time round and I hope we receive the same love from the audience as we did for our first collaboration together”.

Vikram Malhotra, Founder & CEO, Abundantia Entertainment says, "I am very excited to collaborate with Anu once again. We had an amazing time working with Anu on Shakuntala Devi and the film has become a bit of a landmark in terms of how it has connected with viewers all across the world. Anu has a unique storytelling style and her stories are underpinned with strong women characters that fit in well with Abundantia's vision of telling impactful stories. I'm confident that together, Anu and Abundantia will delight the audience yet again".

Shikhaa Sharma, Sr. Vice-President and Head Creative & Development, Abundantia Entertainment added, "After a super successful outing with Anu, in the form of Shakuntala Devi, it was just a matter of time when we got together again! Anu's infectious energy, her collaborative attitude and just how she leads from the front are inspiring for the entire cast and crew. This time round, the genre is even more thrilling and we are already underway with the scripting of this murder mystery".
