The role I play in this movie has three variations over time, where I play a college girl, young wife and a strong woman. I find it very interesting to explore different shades of the same character.”Mumbai Saga director Sanjay Gupta said in a statement, “The most important thing is that my gangster films often also have strong female characters. This character starts off as John’s girlfriend, then becomes his wife. I needed an actress who could play a seventeen-year-old college girl, a young wife, and then a strong woman in her thirties. I am an admirer of Kajal’s work. She looks lovely and has a great screen presence. I am glad that we are collaborating on this film.”The film also stars Suniel Shetty, Jackie Shroff, Rohit Roy, Samir Soni, Amol Gupte and Prateik Babbar. The Mumbai-based action thriller will hit screens on June 19, 2020.
