Soon, their happiness comes to a halt as a group of dacoits attack the train. Lakshya behaves extremely violently during their unpredictable train journey. 

The official website for the Toronto International Film Festival states that Tulika’s family is forcing her into an arranged marriage. In order to save her, her lover Amrit, played by Lakshya, and his fellow commando buddy Viresh embark on a mission.

Nikhil Nagesh Bhat wrote and directed the film. Kill is all set to premiere on July 5, 2024. Notably, TIFF screened it as the only Indian film under the Midnight Madness programme in August 2023.

Kill is a transition for Lakshya from TV shows to the big screen. He gained renown for playing the titular warrior in Sony’s historical drama Porus.

Moreover, he is set to co-star with Shanaya Kapoor in Dharma Productions’ Bedhadak. In addition, he will appear alongside Janhvi Kapoor in Dostana 2 in the future.
