Dabba Cartel is among the promising web shows lined up for its release soon. Days after releasing its teaser, the makers today dropped the trailer of the show led by Shabana Azmi, Jyotika, Shalini Pandey, Anjali Anand and Nimisha Sajayan in a special event that witnessed the attendance of the entire star cast and crew. During the conversation, the veteran actress admitted that she wanted to ‘remove’ two co-stars from the show, one of it being Jyotika.
On February 18, during the trailer launch of Dabba Cartel, the show director Hitesh Bhatia was asked about the logistics of getting an ensemble star-cast for the show. In response to this, Shabana Azmi dropped a bombshell confessing that she tried to remove two actresses from the show including Jyotika.
She said, “I have a confession to make. There are two actresses in this show that I wanted to remove. One is Jyotika. She doesn’t know this, but I really wanted her out and wanted to cast someone else. I even told them (Farhan Akhtar and Shibani Akhtar) that kisi aur ko cast karte hain (let’s cast someone else).”
Upon hearing this candid confession, Jyotika laughed while the veteran actress added, “But thankfully, they didn’t budge. Shibani said ‘do whatever you want to, but we are not changing the cast’. And I am grateful that they didn’t listen to me, because it would have robbed me of the chance to work with her.” When asked about who the other girl was, Shabana stated that she was not present at the event.
The trailer of the upcoming show, Dabba Cartel, revolves around the premise of simple lunchbox service that spirals into a perilous game of crime, deception, and survival. It is a gripping tale woven around five middle class women who find themselves engulfed in a high-stakes criminal racket.
Dabba Cartel features a compelling star cast including Shabana Azmi, Gajraj Rao, Jyotika, Nimisha Sajayan, Shalini Pandey, Anjali Anand, Sai Tamhankar, Jisshu Sengupta, Lillete Dubey and Bhupendra Singh Jadawat.
Directed by Hitesh Bhatia, Dabba Cartel is created by Shibani Akhtar, Vishnu Menon, Gaurav Kapur, and Akanksha Seda. It is scheduled to release on Netflix later this month on February 28, 2025.
