A remake of Nattawut Poonpiriya’s 2017 Thai film, ‘Bad Genius,’ the film also stars Ronit Roy, Sahil Mehta, Zeyn Shaw, Prasanna Bisht, Juhi Babbar and Shilpa Shukla.
The film’s official synopsis reads, “After gaining admission into an elite school on scholarship, an orphan genius Niyati gets entangled in a cheating racket when some of her rich friends lure her into helping them cheat in exams through elaborate methods.” In Soumendra Padhi’s directorial debut, the theme revolves around the education system in India. It also sheds light on how financial constraints create obstacles for underprivileged students striving to achieve top grades and excel as the best students.

Directed by Soumendra Padhi and co-written by Padhi and Abhishek Yadav, the film only managed to earn Rs 2.25 crore at box office collections. Interestingly, Alizeh Agnihotri also bagged the Best Female Debut at the 2024 Filmfare Awards for her role as Niyati Singh in the movie.
