After successful debut in Saiyaara Aneet Padda to star in a courtroom drama: Report

After the massive success of 'Saiyaara', actor Aneet Padda has reportedly signed her next film. While many were hoping to see her in another romantic film, the 22-year-old actor has reportedly opted for a courtroom drama.

As per a Bollywood Hungama report, the film titled 'Nyaya' would feature Aneet as a young survivor at the heart of a legal battle. It would also feature actors Fatima Sana Shaikh and Arjun Mathur. The report said the plot of 'Nyaya' would focus on themes of courage and truth played out in the courtroom.

A source involved with the film provided further insight into Aneet’s role. “Aneet will be seen playing a victim who takes a brave stand against a powerful (godman) spiritual



leader who has misbehaved with her. The story follows an intense courtroom drama that will fight against injustice for women,” the source told the portal.

The source continued, "Her character is central to the story and brings emotional depth to the narrative. It aims to highlight themes of justice, power imbalance, and courage.”

'Nyaya' is directed by Nitya Mehra, known for previous works such as 'Baar Baar Dekho' and 'Made in Heaven'. Mehra will co-direct the film with her husband Karan Kapadia. The duo have worked with Aneet before on the show 'Big Girls Don’t Cry'.
