Prime Video has announced that the gripping thriller Stolen is all set to premiere globally on June 4. The directorial debut of Karan Tejpal, co-written with Swapnil Salkar (aka Agadbumb) and producer Gaurav Dhingra, the film is executive-produced by a dream team of cinema heavyweights – Anurag Kashyap, Kiran Rao, Nikkhil Advani, and Vikramaditya Motwane.
Picture this – two city-slicker brothers witness a heart-wrenching kidnapping of a baby at a rural railway station. One brother’s conscience kicks in, and he ropes in the other for a dangerous deep dive into the underbelly of rural India — no GPS, no backup, just grit and gut instinct.
Leading the charge on screen are Abhishek Banerjee, Harish Khanna, Mia Maelzer, Sahidur Rahaman, and Shubham — a powerhouse cast that brings this emotionally raw, edge-of-your-seat thriller to life.
The film made its debut at the 2023 Venice Film Festival to a standing ovation, and it’s been cleaning up at festivals ever since. Best Director, Best Cinematography, Best Actress at Beijing; Best Film and Best Director at Skip City in Japan; a Special Mention at Zurich; and well-received screenings at Jio MAMI and IFFK back home.
