Some stories aren’t just meant to be told—they demand to be. Udaipur Files – Kanhaiya Lal Tailor Murder, whose trailer just dropped courtesy of Reliance Entertainment, is one such film. Slated for a July 11, 2025 release, the film dives headfirst into one of India’s most chilling real-life crimes—the broad daylight murder of Kanhaiya Lal, a tailor from Udaipur. His death, allegedly triggered by a social media post, shocked the nation, sparked protests, and reopened urgent conversations about religious harmony, freedom of expression, and justice in modern India.
Directed by Bharat S. Shrinate and produced by Amit Jani, the film doesn’t shy away from its mission: to give voice to a tragedy that left a scar on the collective national conscience. Featuring a cast that includes Vijay Raaz, Rajniesh Duggal, Preeti Jhangiani, and Kamlesh Sawant, Udaipur Files promises to be more than just a retelling—it’s an emotional excavation. The creators describe it as “a voice for the voiceless,” and with a screenplay co-written by Jayant Sinha and Amit Jani, the narrative aims to capture the chaos, silence, fury, and pain that followed the 2022 murder.
The real-life incident—where attackers Muhammad Riyaz Attari and Muhammad Ghaus recorded and broadcast their gruesome act—sent shockwaves beyond India’s borders, even drawing comment from the United Nations. The film doesn’t only chronicle the murder; it intends to examine the system that let it happen and the aftermath that left a nation reeling. With a heavy-hitting soundtrack featuring voices like Kailash Kher, Palak Muchhal, and Nandini Srikar, the emotional weight of the story is underscored in every frame and note.
Presented by Jani Firefox Films and distributed by Reliance Entertainment, Udaipur Files arrives as a reminder that some truths can’t be buried under time or silence. Whether it sparks dialogue, discomfort, or dissent, it’s clear that the film seeks to do what journalism, debate, and even justice have struggled to do—ensure Kanhaiya Lal’s story isn’t forgotten.
