Expressing his excitement, the 'Gangs of Wasseypur' actor shared, "Being associated with 'Jorma' is truly exhilarating. The film has stretched boundaries in various dimensions. I'm grateful to Devashish for placing his trust in me. The overwhelming response we've received so far has fueled our anticipation for the trailer's release, offering a glimpse into what's in store."
The storyline revolves around Manoj's character, a resident of a small village, who finds himself evading the police, carrying his infant daughter, accused of abduction.
Escaping his village, the father seeks refuge in remote areas while evading authorities hot on his trail.
Devashish Makhija, the film's writer-director, highlighted, "This survival thriller delves into the depths of human resilience and the pursuit of life despite insurmountable odds. The entire crew, unwavering and talented, dedicated an incredible amount of effort to this project. Years of contemplation and perseverance shaped this film. We're eagerly awaiting its global unveiling."

Delving into his experience, Zeeshan shared, "Having grown up in the city, this film took me to jungles and iron ore mines for the first time. It made me empathize with Ratnakar and instilled a profound appreciation for life's blessings."
Reflecting on the lessons learned, he added, "This film has been a learning curve, and I sincerely hope it imparts valuable insights to the audience."
