Rangeen Trailer: Viineet Kumar's Revenge Quest Against Wife Rajshri Deshpande Promises A Wild Ride
Viineet Kumar Singh stars in Rangeen, a dark comedy about a betrayed husband's chaotic revenge journey. The trailer teases humour, heartbreak, and messy emotions. Rangeen, starring Viineet Kumar Singh, is creating quite a buzz. The trailer of the much-anticipated series has been dropped today on Prime Video. Blending humour with emotion, Rangeen navigates through the tangled threads of relationships, trust, and personal awakening. The trailer offers a hilarious glimpse into the chaos that unfolds in Adarsh's (Viineet Kumar) seemingly simple life. What begins as the shocking discovery of his wife Naina's betrayal quickly spirals into a wildly unpredictable journey. In a bold exploration of morality, identity, and tangled emotions, Rangeen follows Adarsh – a mild-mannered, middle-aged man – as he embarks on a hilarious yet heart-wrenching quest for revenge. After Adarsh discovers that his wife hires gigolos because of their boring married life, he decides to become one himself, just to take revenge on her. Stylish yet chaotic, funny yet deeply human, the series promises a delicious blend of humour and relationship drama, with punchy dialogues, quirky characters, and a storyline that's anything but ordinary. Talking about what made him say yes to playing Adarsh, the lead character in Rangeen, Viineet Kumar Singh shared, 'Adarsh is a character that felt instantly human to me—flawed, conflicted, yet deeply sincere. What excited me most about Rangeen was the chance to portray someone navigating a storm of betrayal and self-doubt, not with melodrama, but with restraint, humour, and quiet intensity. There's a raw honesty in the way the story unfolds, and that's what makes it both entertaining and emotionally resonant." Rajshri Deshpande, who plays the character of Naina, the female lead in the series, shared, 'Rangeen isn't just a twisted relationship drama, it's a mirror to the complexities we carry in our hearts and minds. What drew me to Naina was her unapologetic hunger for desire, for meaning, for something beyond the boxes she's been put into. What I love is that Rangeen doesn't hand out easy answers. It doesn't reduce women to labels — it lets them be messy, searching, and painfully human." Produced by Kabir Khan and Rajan Kapoor, the series is created and written by Amardeep Galsin and Amir Rizvi, and directed by Kopal Naithani and Pranjal Dua. The series is brought to life by a stellar cast including Viineet Kumar Singh, Rajshri Deshpande, Taaruk Raina, and Sheeba Chaddha in lead roles. It will exclusively premiere on Prime Video in India and over 240 countries and territories worldwide on July 25.

Chaava and Jaat actor Viineet Kumar Singh: Lucknow has been important for my career
Actor Viineet Kumar Singh has shot extensively in Lucknow and his home state Uttar Pradesh. Last seen in Chhaava and Jaat, the actor has a strong connection with the state capital. 'While Varanasi is my janmabhoomi and Mumbai is my karmabhoomi, Lucknow, too, has a been really important for my upbringing. 'My first memory of moving out of Varanasi was coming to Lucknow. I came here as a mini (under 12) to play basketball at the KD Singh Babu Stadium. Big cars, tall buildings, big showrooms were all novelty for me. Then, there used to be Nixon Market near the stadium, which sold foreign goods at economical prices, where I shopped. So, whenever I get time during shoots, I go to the stadium for a while, take a stroll in the erstwhile basketball court and relive my memories. Bachpan se hi lagaav raha hai Lucknow se,' he says. The actor recalls, 'Later, I came here for a 21-day camp. I remember buying a purse for mummy, a T-shirt for papa and things related to sports for my brother and sisters. I spent all my money buying gifts for them. These are very fond and strong memories.' 'Rangbaaz (2022), my most successful OTT show so far, was shot entirely in Lucknow and Sitapur. Besides Bareilly and Varanasi, a portion of Mukkabaaz (2018) was also shot here. I extensively shot for Sudhir Mishra's DaasDev (2018) here, Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl (2020), and Match Fixing, which released earlier this year,' he says. Viineet adds, 'If we move bit further, Gangs of Wasseypur was 90% shot in Varanasi. My next with Anurag (Kashyap, director) sir Nishanchi has been extensively shot here in two schedules (the movie is in two parts). Lucknow is a very shoot-friendly place. Since I am also a writer, I make sure that all my stories have my state in some way or another. Kaafi yogdaan raha hai iss shehar ka meri journey mein.'
