Actor Huma Qureshi is quite excited about her police drama ‘Bayaan‘, which will participate in Busan’s Asian Project Market.
Directed by Bikas Ranjan Mishra, ‘Bayaan’ centres on a female detective investigating her first case as lead investigator in a small Rajasthan town. She faces significant challenges due to her opponent’s deep-rooted influence within the system, while also striving to live up to her father’s legendary reputation in law enforcement.
Mishra, also stated that the film shed light on the deep-rooted patriarchy in rural areas and the oppressive system it creates for women.His aim, he explains, is not to preach, but to convey the profound impact of this regime on people’s lives, urging the audience to truly feel and understand the extent of its effects.Huma Qureshi, who played a police officer for the first time, cited her reasons for being attracted to the film, saying, “I choose stories which resonate with me. I am always looking to dabble in different genres … and if it helps me experiment as an actor, then I do want to be part of it. When ‘Bayaan’ came to me, I was intrigued by its milieu, the role, the film’s narrative and the sheer passion of the makers to bring this story to the fore.”
“I wanted to understand what it meant to be a protector who aids in the delivery of justice as part of the system. ‘Bayaan’ helped me in not just exploring a new aspect in me as an actor but was an education in what it means to be a law enforcer in a small town in Rajasthan,” she added.
The film features Chandrachur Singh, Sachin Khedekar, Avijit Dutt, Shampa Mandal, Priti Shukla, Vibhor Mayank, and Aditi Kanchan Singh.
