Women are shattering stereotypes and taking the lead, proving they don’t need a prince charming to break the glass ceiling. We are talking about Helly Shah’s Kaya Palat, whose trailer drops today. True to its title, the protagonist is set to turn the tables, fearlessly battling sand and river mafias in this compelling film, directed by very talented Shoib Nikash Shah starring internationally-acclaimed actor Rahhat Shah Kazmi and Tariq Khan in the lead roles.
2024 seems to be the year of women-driven films. Following Do Patti, Kaya Palat promises another edge-of-your-seat experience with a richly-layered female lead who reveals her strength and complexity in unexpected ways. Helly Shah, a popular television actress, marks her Bollywood debut with this film, bringing a fresh perspective to the big screen.
The film’s premiere will make its first appearance in Kashmiri theaters, which have lost their prominence in recent years. Thanks to Rahhat Shah Kazmi and his team, these historic venues are being revitalized, with Kaya Palat set to bring a wave of appreciation and excitement. Shot amidst the breathtaking scenery of Kashmir, the film draws inspiration from the ‘heavenly city’ itself.
Helly Shah is thrilled to play ‘Kaya,’ a character who rises from vulnerability to strength. She was captivated by the script, particularly Kaya’s journey, which is shaped by two pursuers whose love spirals into possessiveness and emotional manipulation. Kaya, a young woman haunted by a troubled past, channels her strength to confront the mafia fearlessly, weathering a tale of love, betrayal, and resilience against a challenging backdrop.
Directed by Shoib Nikash Shah and produced by Rahhat Kazmi Film Studios, Tariq Khan Films, Tera Entertainment in collaboration with Zeba Sajid Films and Alphaa Productions, Kaya Palat also stars Mir Sarwar and Swaroopa Ghosh in powerful roles. Co-written by Rahhat Shah Kazmi, Shoib Nikash Shah, and Vinod Dixit, the film will soon be available on OTT platforms following its global release.
