'Sonchiriya'

'Sonchiriya': A story of rebellion and survival

Currently, Sushant is busy promoting Sonchiriya which is based on the dacoits of Chambal and is set against the backdrop of the 1975 Emergency. Helmed by Abhishek Chaubey, Sonchiriya also stars Bhumi Pednekar, Ranvir Shorey, Manoj Bajpayee and Ashutosh Rana in key roles.
