About Bhediya

The film, directed by Amar Kaushik was released on November 25. The film also stars Deepak Dobriyal, Abhishek Banerjee and Saurabh Shukla, besides Varun and Kriti. Amar, who is known for directing films such as 'Stree', 'Bala', 'Sone Bhi Do Yaaro' and many more, shared how he chose Varun for the film's role.

He said: "Varun himself came to me and told me that he wanted to be a Bhediya (wolf). The moment he said this I was like you are too cute and don't look like a Bhediya. Listening to this, Varun literally acted like a Bhediya which blew my mind and that is how we got our Bhediya."

The film is set in Arunachal Pradesh. A young man named Bhaskar gets bitten by a wolf in the forest and starts transforming into a shape-shifting werewolf. He along with his friends look for answers to find a cure and uncover an age-old mystery.
