At the end of the trailer, Bhumi questions whether people have stopped being empathetic or turned 'Bhakshak' (literally meaning eater).

Apart from Pednekar, the film features Aditya Srivastava, Sanjay Mishra and Sai Tamhankar in significant roles.

The film will be released on Netflix on February 9.
