The film also stars Shriya Pilgaonkar and Annu Kapoor.

This captivating comedy-drama unfolds in the heartland of the country where the protagonist, Gannu, portrayed by Jitendra Kumar, embarks on a journey against the system. Amidst the emotional pursuit to earn the trust and love of his dear ones, Gannu not only confronts the external challenges but also struggles with his own insecurities and issue of alcoholism.

Talking about the film, producer Nikkhil Advani said in a statement: “‘Dry Day’ is a social satire presented with a hilarious tragic-comedy of errors with lots of drama and emotions. It gives an important and relevant message about alcoholism and I consider myself fortunate to have had the opportunity to craft this film.

“Following the remarkable success of ‘Mumbai Diaries’, our collaboration with Prime Video has grown stronger over the years and I'm looking forward to seeing how the viewers receive this meaningful narrative.”
