What's the story
Prime Video India and HRX Films (a division of FilmKraft Productions) are gearing up for their next collaboration, a comedy film titled Mess. Now Variety India has reported that actor Pratik Gandhi will play the lead role in the film. The film's high-concept narrative will see him as a man with extreme OCD. The story revolves around a group of robbers who break into his house, only to realize that they need to survive the night-long standoff with him.
