Talking about the project, director Akshay Shere said in a statement, "Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas is more than just a crime thriller, it is an exploration of morality, redemption, and the choices that define us. Working with Arshad and Jitendra was an absolute joy as they brought such honesty and intensity to their roles, elevating every scene. I cannot wait for audiences to experience the emotional and thrilling journey of Vishwas Bhagwat and Sameer."

Actor Arshad Warsi added, "Playing Vishwas Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas has been an incredibly layered and emotionally exhausting experience, but also one of the most rewarding of my career. He is not your typical hero, he is flawed, angry, and haunted by his past, yet determined to uphold justice. The trailer gives you just a glimpse of his world, but the film will take you through his turmoil and resilience. For me, what makes Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas special is that it's not just about solving a crime, it's about confronting one's inner battles. I am thrilled for audiences to experience this journey, and I truly believe it will keep them hooked till the very last second."

On speaking about his character, Jitendra shared, " "This role in Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas is unlike anything I have ever attempted before. Sameer is a character with many facets -- outwardly ordinary, vulnerable even romantic and yet carrying complex and far more unsettling layers beneath the surface. Portraying him allowed me to break away from the image audiences usually associate me with, which was both challenging and liberating as an actor."

Helmed by Akshay Shere, 'Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas' premieres on ZEE5 on October 17. (ANI)
