The makers of Taapsee Pannu's Gandhariunveiled the trailer at an event in Mumbai on Tuesday, with The Free Press Journal in attendance. The film follows a fierce mother who will go to any length to protect her child.

Taapsee plays a visually impaired woman in the action thriller and revealed that she worked closely with a visually impaired person to understand the nuances of the character.

"I worked with him in terms of understanding how the walk should be, how much you can see shadows, what your peripheral vision feels like. That helped me take care of my body language. Also, you will also get to see how my character's blindness helps her and to what extent it stays with her," she said.

Speaking about what drew her to the project, Taapsee said writer-producer Kanika Dhillon approached her knowing she was open to action films after Baby and Naam Shabana. "Kanika knew that after Naam Shabana and Baby, I was ready to do an action film. What attracted me was this was very different from the things I've done before."
