Tigmanshu Dhulia\u2019s latest directorial work, the crime drama Ghamasaan, premiered on ZEE5 on September 11, 2026. The series stars Arshad Warsi and Pratik Gandhi in a story set in the Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh.<\/p>\n

The project marks Dhulia\u2019s return to the world of dacoits, a territory he previously explored in the acclaimed 2012 film Paan Singh Tomar starring Irrfan Khan. Ghamasaan is inspired by the life of the notorious dacoit Dadua, according to the creators.<\/p>\n

A Cat-and-Mouse Conflict<\/h2>\n

The story is set in 2006. Arshad Warsi plays Maharaj, a feared dacoit operating from the jungles of Bundelkhand. He has influence over local politicians and police, making him difficult to pursue.<\/p>\n

Pratik Gandhi plays Aditya Singh, an honest IPS officer sent with a Special Task Force to control the region during elections. His mission is to stop Maharaj\u2019s activities and ensure the election process proceeds smoothly.<\/p>\n

What begins as a standard cop-versus-criminal pursuit becomes a larger conflict. As Aditya digs deeper, he realizes he is not fighting one man but an entire system that protects the outlaw.<\/p>\n

Cast and Production<\/h2>\n

Ghamasaan also stars Rajpal Yadav as Kalika, a key associate of Maharaj, and Ishita Dutta as Aparna, Aditya\u2019s wife. Jatin Goswami plays Angad, Maharaj\u2019s right-hand man.<\/p>\n

The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande of Jio Studios, along with Piiyush Singh, Abhayanand Singh, Saurabh Gupta and Ashwini Chaudhary of Golden Ratio Films. Miten Shah of Yaelstar Films is also a producer.<\/p>\n

The story was written by Piiyush Singh and Ram Yash Singh. Dhulia wrote the screenplay and dialogues. The cinematography is by Dev Agarwal, with editing by Sourabh Prabhudesai. Music is composed by Manik Batra and Satya Manik Afsar.<\/p>\n

Festival Run and Critical Reception<\/h2>\n

Before its streaming release, Ghamasaan was screened at several film festivals. These included the MAMI Mumbai Film Festival, the Cinevesture International Film Festival, and the Chicago South Asian Film Festival.<\/p>\n
