The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Nishaanchi Part 2 is a 2025 Indian Hindi-language crime drama film directed by Anurag Kashyap, who also co-wrote the script with Ranjan Chandel and Prasoon Mishra. Produced by Ajay Rai and Ranjan Singh under JAR Pictures and Flip Films, and distributed by Amazon MGM Studios, the film is a direct sequel to Nishaanchi, serving as the second and final instalment of the duology. The film stars Aaishvary Thackeray in dual roles, along with Vedika Pinto, Monika Panwar, Kumud Mishra and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, all of them reprise their roles from the first part. Originally shot as a single film, principal photography began in early 2024 and completed by July, where filming predominantly took place in Lucknow and Kanpur. The film was photographed by Sylvester Fonseca and edited by Aarti Bajaj. It also featured a soundtrack composed by Anurag Saikia, Manan Bhardwaj, Deepak Thakur, Parimal Shais, Kalmi and Aaishvary himself. Due to its five and a half-hour long runtime, the film was split into two parts, with the second part being 145 minutes long. Nishaanchi Part 2 was released through Amazon Prime Video on 14 November 2025, along with the first part, largely owing to the predecessor's underperformance. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
