Abhay Verma and Rasha Thadani come together for a romantic action (Exclusive)
Actors Abhay Verma and Rasha Thadani will be seen sharing screen space for the first time in Layka, Layki , an upcoming new-age action drama directed by Saurabh Gupta . The film marks Gupta's directorial debut for a feature film and comes after his writing work on the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Animal . Layka, Layki is positioned as a genre-blending action narrative with a contemporary backdrop. While specific plot details are being kept under wraps. Verma, who was recently seen in Munjya , became a rage, and will also be seen in Shah Rukh Khan-led King. In an earlier interview talking about his journey, he had said, "From being a boy from Panipat to a leading hero of Munjya , I think it's too good to be true. I believe this is not just a win for me, but it belongs to every single person from a small town, wondering whether they should dream big or not and whether they should be accepted as an actor or not. As I mentioned, this is not my win but every other person who is dreaming of making it big. In my career, doing different roles is the only satisfaction I get and I only want to say that I am coming from all the stereotypes that industry and people have made, like you don't have to do this or that role. I can play anything; from transgender to terrorist and now a simple boy in Munjya, who ultimately becomes a gentleman, so my intent has always been clear." Rasha Thadani, who made her acting debut earlier this year with Azaad, became a rage courtesy of her special track, Uyi Amma.
