After garnering critical acclaim and awards at 8 prestigious film festivals including MAMI Mumbai, IFFLA Los Angeles, and London Indian Film Festival, Berlin continued its global journey with Melbourne Film Festival. The groundbreaking spy thriller that has already taken the international film circuit by storm is now set to premiere on ZEE5 Global. Set against the backdrop of 1990s New Delhi, this first-of-its-kind espionage drama has garnered critical acclaim at various prestigious film festivals worldwide. Adding to its growing list of accolades, Berlin was also screened at Indian Film festival of Melbourne (IFFM 2024) on 17th Aug at Hoyts Cinema.
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Atul Sabharwal, Berlin features a stellar ensemble cast including Aparshakti Khurana, Ishwak Singh, Rahul Bose, Anupriya Goenka, and Kabir Bedi. This high-stakes drama, lauded for its outstanding performances and distinctive storytelling, promises to be an engrossing tale of undercover activities, deceit, and moral ambiguity. Produced by Zee Studios and Yippee Ki Yay Motion Pictures, Berlin is now set to captivate a wider audience as it prepares for its exclusive premiere on ZEE5 Global.
Berlin takes viewers into the icy winters of 1990’s in Delhi, where a silent storm of espionage is brewing. The story revolves around three main characters whose lives are about to collide in unexpected ways. Ishwak Singh will be seen in an unusual yet challenging role – a deaf-mute young man accused of being a foreign spy. Aparshakti Khurana, stepping out of his comfort zone, will be seen as a sign language expert tasked with unlocking the secrets hidden in silence. Anupriya Goenka adds fuel to the fire as an enigmatic agent, her true loyalties shrouded in mystery. Meanwhile, Rahul Bose races against time as an intelligence officer, fighting not just external threats but also the shadows within his own agency. As layers of deception peel away, alliances shift and questions multiply: In a world where nothing is as it seems. And in this high-stakes game of betrayal, who will make it out alive?
Filmmaker Atul Sabharwal says, “With ‘Berlin’, we’ve created a spy thriller that is sure to keep the audiences on the edge of their couches. The on-screen chemistry between Aparshakti and Ishwak is nothing short of electric – it’s a treat that I believe viewers will thoroughly enjoy. Having the opportunity to collaborate with such versatile stars, alongside our visionary producers and the platform giant ZEE5 Global, is any filmmaker’s dream. We’ve poured our hearts and souls into this project, and I’m optimistic it will strike a chord with viewers. The entire team is excited and eagerly looking forward to the premiere. ‘Berlin’ is our labour of love that we can’t wait to share with the world.”
