The production house has announced March 31, 2028, as the worldwide theatrical release date for the untitled project, which will be directed by Rocket Boys fame Abhay Pannu.
Known for backing films across genres such as romance, action, drama, comedy and thrillers, YRF is now expanding its cinematic portfolio with a theatrical horror feature. The upcoming film aims to bring the production house’s signature scale, filmmaking approach and cinematic vision to a horror experience designed specifically for the big screen.
The project is being developed under the guidance of Aditya Chopra, while YRF CEO Akshaye Widhani will serve as its producer. With this film, the banner is entering theatrical horror for the first time, marking a new addition to its diverse filmography.
Abhay Pannu, who gained recognition for his work on the series Rocket Boys, will not only direct the film but has also written its screenplay. The project marks his debut as a director in the theatrical feature film space.
