A Thursday trailer: Yami Gautam takes 16 kids hostage in tense thriller.


After starring in the Disney Plus Hotstar movie Bhoot Police earlier, Yami Gautam is back with a brand new film, A Thursday, made in collaboration with the OTT platform. The movie, a sort of spiritual sequel to the acclaimed A Wednesday, is being pitched as a suspenseful drama punctuated with exciting thrills. The makers on Thursday released the first full trailer of the movie.

A Thursday trailer promises an intriguing drama with strong elements of a thriller. The actor seems to be playing somewhat of an anti-hero in the film. For now, it is made to appear that Gautam’s character, Naina has a twisty side to her with secrets buried in the recesses of her mind that threaten to overwhelm the country. In the two-minute trailer, we see Naina, a school teacher, taking 16 students of her kindergarten school hostage. She then makes a threatening call to the police force (enter Neha Dhupia and Atul Kulkarni), about wanting to speak to the Prime Minister (Dimple Kapadia). If the police and the PM fail to meet her demands, Naina says that she would shoot her students in ‘alphabetical order.’
