Bandar, which had its world premiere at the 50th Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in September 2025, is set to hit theatres on June 5.

According to the film’s official logline on IMDb, Bandar follows TV star Samar (Bobby), whose life takes a dark turn when his ex-girlfriend Gayatri (Sapna Pabbi) accuses him of rape after he cuts off contact with her. Even as he begins a new relationship with Khushi (Saba Azad), he is arrested and finds himself trapped in a corrupt and unforgiving justice system.

Bandar also stars Raj B Shetty, Jitendra Joshi, Indrajith Sukumaran, Riddhi Sen and Nagesh Bhosle in key roles.

The film is written by Sudip Sharma and Abhishek Banerjee and produced by Shivie Pandit and Gaurie Pandit.

Besides Bandar, Deol will also feature in the YRF action-thriller Alpha alongside Sharvari and Alia Bhatt.
