Director Sudipto Sen and producer Vipul Shah, the creative team behind the successful film The Kerala Story, have officially revealed their upcoming project, Bastar, scheduled for release in 2024.

Sunshine Pictures, the production house behind several critically acclaimed movies, recently unveiled their highly anticipated film, 'Bastar,' with a theatrical release date set for April 5, 2024. This new venture is once again inspired by a true incident.

After an exact span of 14 years, poetic justice will be served..."
