A still from the trailer of Choked
The trailer of Anurag Kashyap's Netflix film, Choked: Paisa Bolta Hai, has just released today. The film starring Saiyami Kher and Malayalam actor Roshan Mathew in the lead sure looks gritty and relevant. The story of Choked follows Sarita Pillai (Kher), a bank cashier who has to provide for the family while her husband Sushant (Mathew) struggles to make it as a musician.
The suspense-drama is all set to drop on Netflix on June 5, 2020. Speaking about the film, director Anurag Kashyap told mid-day, "The film is close to my heart. It is about relationships, and the precarious balance between truth, power and money. It is the story of a strong-willed, middle-class housewife who finds cash flowing out of her kitchen sink every night, and how this changes her life."
