To promote his bloody thriller, aptly titled KILL, Indian writer and filmmaker Nikhil Nagesh Bhat (Saluun) stopped by Collider’s studio in the Cinema Center by MARBL at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival for an exclusive interview with Editor-in-chief Steve Weintraub. Joining Bhat were the movie’s hero and antagonist, Lakshya (Haseena) and Raghav Juyal (Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan) to talk about bringing genre films to Indian cinema and premiering at Midnight Madness.

Boasting some rather impressive set pieces and nonstop action, KILL takes place almost entirely on the Rajdhani Express, barreling full speed ahead for New Delhi. Among the passengers aboard the train are star-crossed lovers Tulika (played by Tanya Maniktala) and Amrit (Lakshya), with Tulika’s next stop an arranged marriage. Unable to stomach losing the love of his life, Amrit and his fellow commando set out to rescue Tulika from her predicament in a bold romantic gesture. This romantic drama goes off the rails when a ruthless gang of bandits, 40 men strong, takes over the train. In order to protect his love and her family, Amrit and his friend take on the criminals in heart-pounding martial arts combat, but their opposition is met by the gang’s psychotic Fani (Juyal), whose bloodlust must be sated.

The trio discusses what it was like first screening this bloody, action-packed film for friends and family, the shocking initial reactions they received, and the trust their producers put into bringing this vision to the big screen. Lakshya and Juyal share what it was like to prep for nine months before filming in a speedy 77 days, the intense training, and the physical and mental toll it took even off-set. They talk about how KILL changed in the editing room, why this is a perfect date movie, the hopes for a sequel and even a John Wick-esque franchise, and tons more.
