Hansal Mehta's quietly powerful Aligarh is inspired by the true story professor Ramchandra Siras, who became the victim of a humiliating sting operation carried out to determine his sexuality. As Siras, Manoj Bajpayee delivers one of the most heartbreaking performances of his career.
Rajkummar Rao plays Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, a British terrorist of Pakistani descent who was arrested for plotting the murder of a journalist, Danile Pearl. Mehta, in his own words, attempted to explore evil as "human characteristic".
Based on a true story once again, Mehta brings the heartwrenching story of criminal lawyer Shahid Azmi, who was assassinated in 2010.
Mehta pairs real-life couple Rajkummar Rao and Patralekha to play a migrant family that moves to Mumbai to earn a living, only to find the city slowly swallowing them whole.
Mehta's latest directorial is based on the 2016 terrorist attack on a Dhaka cafe and a young man's courageous spirit.
