Mumbai,
January
12th,
2026:
After
releasing
in
the
theaters
last
year,
Kussh
S.
Sinha’s
directorial
debut
film
–
Nikita
Roy,
a
horror-mystery
is
now
streaming
on
JioHotstar.
The
film
stars
Sonakshi
Sinha
in
the
lead
role
with
Paresh
Rawal,
Suhail
Nayyar
and
Arjun
Rampal
playing
titular
characters.
In
a
world
that’s
torn
between
logic
and
belief,
Nikita
Roy
walks
the
grey
line
dividing
them-going
through
the
chilling
maze
of
deception,
fear
and
supernatural
intrigue.
Directed
by
Kussh
S.
Sinha
and
produced
by
Kinjal
Ashok
Ghone,
Nicky
Khemchand
Bhaganani,
Kartos
Entertainment,
Kussh
S
Sinha,
Ankur
Vijay
Takrani,

Khemchand
Bhagnani,
Dinesh
Ratitram
Gupta,
the
story
follows
Nikita
Roy,
a
debunker
of
supernatural
myths
and
superstitious
beliefs.
When
her
brother
dies
under
mysterious
circumstances,
Nikita
starts
digging
through
the
deception
to
find
the
truth
that
is
buried
deep.
As
she
delves
deeper,
she
encounters
supernatural
events
that
challenge
her
rational
thinking,
turning
personal
grief
into
a
gripping
investigation.
Talking
about
the
film,
Sonakshi
Sinha
said,
“Nikita
felt
very
real
to
me
from
the
start.
She’s
dealing
with
loss,
confusion,
and
a
lot
of
unanswered
questions,
yet
she
keeps
moving
forward.
What
stayed
with
me
was
her
quiet
strength,
the
kind
that
doesn’t
need
to
be
loud
to
be
powerful.
Kussh’s
direction
gave
me
the
space
to
explore
those
silences
and
emotions
honestly.
I’m
thrilled
about
the
film’s
premiere
on
JioHotstar,
which
offers
an
incredible
opportunity
to
connect
with
a
much
broader
audience.”
Paresh
Rawal
added,
“I
was
drawn
to
how
understated
this
character
Amar
Dev
is.
It
is
a
character
very
different
from
the
ones
I’ve
portrayed
in
the
past.
He
doesn’t
raise
his
voice
or
announce
his
power,
it
comes
through
influence
and
presence.
Playing
someone
who
controls
a
room
without
obvious
aggression
was
very
interesting
for
me.
I
feel
a
film
like
this
benefits
from
being
watched
on
JioHotstar,
where
audiences
can
really
settle
in
and
absorb
the
details.”
Will
Nikita
find
a
way
to
debunk
the
unnatural
and
mysterious
death
of
her
brother
or
will
her
rationalism
fail
to
protect
her
from
the
supernatural
myth
that
consumed
her
brother?
Watch
Nikita
Roy,
now
streaming
on
JioHotstar!
