Kaalidhar Laapata
A man discarded by his own family is on his way to reclaim his life, with nothing but a wild spirit, a forgotten bucket list, and an 8-year-old orphan by his side. That's exactly what Kaalidhar Laapata brings. ZEE5 today dropped the much-anticipated trailer of the upcoming film which is a heartfelt dramedy exploring life, loss, laughter, and the liberating beauty of unexpected companionship. The movie also stars Zeeshan Ayyub and Daivik Bhagela in significant roles and is set to premiere on ZEE5 on 4th July.
The film is produced under the Zee Studios and Emmay Entertainment banner, and helmed by Madhumita. It stars Abhishek Bachchan as Kaalidhar, a middle-aged man grappling with memory loss, abandonment and a lifetime of quiet betrayals. He overhears his siblings’ cruel plan to abandon him at the crowded Maha Kumbh Mela. That's when Kaalidhar decides to disappear on his own terms. However, fate has other plans when he meets Ballu (Daivik Bhagela), an outspoken, street-smart 8-year-old. Ballu has been surviving solo on India’s chaotic streets.
