Mumbai: Backed by Alia Bhatt and Shaheen Bhatt’s banner Eternal Sunshine Productions, ‘Don’t Be Shy’ will be getting a world premiere on September 25 on Prime Video.
Talking about ‘Don’t Be Shy’, Alia and Shaheen said a joint statement, saying, “Don’t Be Shy has been extremely special to us from the very beginning, and we couldn’t be prouder to see it come to life. Additionally, Kunaal Roy Kapur, Anurag Basu, Neha Dhupia, and Anju Alva Naik will also play supporting roles in the movie. Co-produced by Grishma Shah and Vikesh Bhutani, the movie shares the tale of friendship, young love, heartbreak, dreams, and the complex journey of decoding young adult life. It captures something so honest about being young—the friendships that shape you, the first loves that change you, the heartbreaks that stay with you, and the process of gradually figuring out who you are. Nikhil Madhok, Director and Head of Originals, Prime Video (SVOD) and Amazon MGM Studios, India added, “This film introduces four extraordinary new actors—Aarushi, Ansh, Bianca, and Piyush—who bring an incredible freshness and authenticity to their roles. Led by Sreeti Mukerji and shaped by the creative vision of Alia and Shaheen Bhatt, Don’t Be Shy is a joyful, heartfelt celebration of friendship, love, and the beautifully messy journey of growing up.”
