Madhu Sharma Instagram – When a letter accusing a revered cult leader of abuse surfaces in a small Indian town, rookie detective Roohi is sent to investigate. Confronted by a wall of silence and blind devotion, she must navigate a closed community to uncover the truth no one dares to speak.
Fresh from its world premiere at the @tiff_net, where it screened in the prestigious Discovery section as the only Indian film selected, “Bayaan” has already begun making waves on the global festival circuit, with additional screenings at @busanfilmfest. This gripping investigative thriller stars acclaimed actor @iamhumaq, who also serves as executive producer, leading a powerful ensemble cast in a story praised as timely, urgent, and universally resonant.
