(Lord Curzon Ki Haveli is slated for an all-India theatrical release on 10th October 2025. *The teaser is out, and it is NOT a Joke!* )
Produced by Golden Ratio Films & First Ray Films and presented by Max Marketing Limited, Lord Curzon Ki Haveli is a searing and layered thriller about the Asians in the West. A Hitchcockian black comedy thriller set against a single evening, Lord Curzon Ki Haveli marks the directorial debut of actor Anshuman Jha, and the first presentation by Max Marketing Limited. It brings together a creative ensemble, including Rasika Dugal, Arjun Mathur, Paresh Pahuja and Tanmay Dhanania.
*Lord Curzon Ki Haveli teaser demands your attention, setting the tone for thriller enthusiasts!* It begins with a mysterious trunk waiting to be opened by actors, poised to step into layered characters, especially Paresh Pahuja, who sets the tone with his curious role. Rasika Dugal, Arjun Mathur and others bring equal levels of intensity, joking around at first but bracing for something they are not prepared for! A spine-chilling event takes place after the trunk is finally opened, leading up to something totally dark and bloody! Director Anshuman Jha pays a direct homage to the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, with a single-lens approach – creating India’s first single-lens mainstream film set for a theatrical release.
Speaking about the same, Anshuman Jha stated, “Firsts are always special for they only happen once. First teaser of my first directorial. Every Haveli has its secrets, dropping the teaser of “Lord Curzon Ki Haveli” feels like opening the door to a world I’ve lived with — dark, mischievous, unforgettable. Can’t wait for you to step in & get surprised.”
Golden Ratio Films, First Ray Films and Max Marketing come together for Lord Curzon Ki Haveli, daring to serve an unconventional Bollywood cinematic spectacle that’s completely “out-of-the-box”. Shot entirely in the UK on a single lens, the black comedy thriller is set in the English countryside. It blends together suspense, humour, sharp historical undertones, and a commentary on identity. A pure genre film, this upcoming black comedy thriller had its world premiere at Melbourne and was the only Indian Film at Europe’s biggest genre film festival – Razor Reel Flanders, last year. It also bagged the ‘Best Director’ award at the Prestigious UK Asian Film Festival in 2024 in London for Anshuman.
Written by award-winning writer Bikas Mishra, Lord Curzon Ki Haveli is slated for a theatrical release across India on 10th October 2025.
