The 34-year-old actor, who recently wrapped up shooting for the film, had previously penned a heartfelt note on his Instagram account, calling the movie "the most relevant and important film of Indian cinema."
"Wrapped up a film which will become the most relevant and important film of Indian cinema. Thank you @anubhavsinhaa sir for giving me this gem and also writing the most realistic cop role ever. Thanks to the entire cast and crew, esp @ronjinichakraborty and @ashishsverma for this wonderful 3D mini model of mine. Love. It's a wrap! # Article15," he wrote on April 9 alongside a picture featuring a 3D mini model of him.
Anubhav Sinha is helming the upcoming investigative drama. Anubhav had last directed and produced the critically acclaimed Rishi Kapoor and Taapsee Pannu starrer Mulk. Ayushmann, who has managed to make his mark in Bollywood with his diverse choice of cinema, from sperm donor to a blind man, will be seen essaying the role of a police officer for the first time in this film.
While Ayushmann will essay the role of the principal protagonist, he will be joined by a stellar support cast comprising of Isha Talwar, Manoj Pahwa, Sayani Gupta, Kumud Mishra, M Naser, Ashish Verma, Sushil Pandey, Subrajyoti Bharat, and Zeeshan Ayub.
This is the first time Sinha and Ayushmann Khurrana will team up for a project. Speaking about his upcoming project, Anubhav Sinha had earlier said, "It is an investigative drama where the audience too is an accused party."
