Amidst the glitz and glamour of the Bollywood film industry, Karan Johar's Dharma Productions unveiled the tantalizing prospect of Lakshya, a promising newcomer poised to make his grand debut alongside Kartik Aaryan and Janhvi Kapoor in the highly anticipated Dostana 2. However, fate had other plans, and that project never materialized. Undeterred, the indomitable KJo swiftly pivoted and announced Bedhadak, a captivating tale that would feature Lakshya alongside the luminous Shanaya Kapoor. But alas, this cinematic venture too was destined to be shelved. Yet, the adage third time's the charm rang true for Lakshya, as he finally secured his grand debut in Karan and Guneet Monga's Kill, a gripping thriller that hit theaters on July 5.
In the lead-up to the film's release, a star-studded screening was held, graced by the presence of Bollywood's elite. Among the attendees was Vicky Kaushal, who, fresh off his electrifying performance in the chart-topping song Tauba Tauba from Bad News, couldn't contain his enthusiasm for Kill. WHAT A FILM!!! he exclaimed, his words brimming with awe and admiration. I tip my hat off to each and everyone involved in making this film. People don't know what's coming their way💥.
Vicky's co-star Neha Dhupia echoed his sentiments, declaring emphatically, Everyone ‘kill’ed it in ‘Kill’. So so so good. Ananya Panday, known for her infectious energy, gushed, So bloody goood!!!! You cannot miss this one!! In theaters this Friday.
The screening also captivated Amol Parashar, Sunny Kaushal, Tahira Kashyap Khurrana, and Varun Sood, leaving them spellbound by the film's brilliance. Shanaya, who was initially slated to make her debut opposite Lakshya in Bedhadak, couldn't resist showering praise on her former near-co-star. No words!!!!! Cant wait to watch it again!!!!! Mind blown 🤯 @itslakshya YOU KILLED IT. 😍⭐, she exclaimed.
Siddhant Chaturvedi, another rising star, hailed Kill as a 'game changer', saying, Finally @itslakshya Veere! delivered what he destined to on the big screen and how! He also heaped praise on Raghav Juyal, who portrays the menacing antagonist in the film, calling him One on the rise! Menacingly beautiful, brutally honest and unapologetically Gruesome!
With such glowing endorsements from the industry's finest, Lakshya and Raghav's performances in Kill have emerged as must-watch highlights. The film, which also features the talented Tanya Maniktala, has garnered significant buzz, even catching the attention of Hollywood producers who are remaking it under the banner of the renowned John Wick franchise.
