Vir Das’ web-show Husmukh nears completion

Vir Das and Nikkhil Advani have teamed up for a unique web-show, which is now nearing completion. Titled Husmukh, the series is being made for one of the leading OTT platforms in India. It is expected to stream towards the end of the year.

Nikkhil Advani, who has almost half a dozen ventures at various stages of development, has just completed shooting for his upcoming directorial Batla House, which features John Abraham in the lead role.


He is now gearing up to commence work on his next directorial venture titled 1911, which again stars John Abraham as the protagonist and revolves around an iconic 1911 football match set in the pre-independence era.

Before beginning work on 1911, Nikkhil Advani is expected to take some time out from his schedule to shoot some pending portions of Husmukh. The web-series revolves around a stand-up comedian who turns into a serial killer at night.

Husmukh is jointly produced by Emmay Entertainment and Applause Entertainment.
