Mumbai: JioCinema is set to launch an exciting new comedy-thriller series, Moonwalk, a quirky tale filled with heists, love, and loyalty. The series, starring Samir Kochhar, Anshumaan Pushkar, Nidhi Singh, Sheeba Chadha, and Geetanjali Kulkarni, will premiere on JioCinema Premium on 20th December. The recently released trailer for the show sets the stage for an unpredictable rivalry between two rival thieves—not over a heist, but for the heart of a woman! With its perfect blend of humor and suspense, Moonwalk promises to keep audiences hooked till the very end.
The story follows Tarik Pandey (Anshumaan Pushkar), Rampur’s best thief, and Maddy (Samir Kochhar), Delhi’s top crook, who find themselves competing not only for a priceless treasure but also for the affection of Chandani (Nidhi Singh). After a slip-up lands Tarik in jail, Chandani challenges both men: whoever steals the better item—Tarik’s golden commode or Maddy’s precious necklace—will win her love. Adding to the chaos are an aging gangster, his teacher-aspiring son, an uptight cop, Chandani’s jealous ex, and a legendary cellmate, all of whom compete for the ultimate prize—a moonrock! Directed by Ajay Bhuyan, Moonwalk is produced by Jyoti Deshpande (Jio Studios) and Ajay G. Rai (Jar Pictures).
Samir Kochhar, who plays Maddy, shared his excitement, saying, “Maddy is a legend in the world of heists, who executes impossible jobs with unmatched skill and charisma. He is always a step ahead, and beneath his suave exterior lies a darker edge – he thrives on the thrill of deception and bending the rules to his advantage. This character brings surprises as the story unfolds, and that’s what makes it interesting. I’m also excited to do something different this time from my previous roles. Moonwalk is exciting, unpredictable, and has everything the audience will look forward to – complete drama and entertainment.”
Anshumaan Pushkar, who portrays Tarik, reflected on his experience, saying, “Moonwalk has been an exhilarating journey for me, both as an actor and as a part of such a fun and exciting project. There’s something special about working on a project that’s as entertaining as it is interesting, and the energy on set was always filled with laughter and positivity. It truly made the entire experience one of the most enjoyable shoots I’ve had to date, and I’m confident that this joy will translate onto the screen for the audience to feel. What made it even more enriching was the opportunity to collaborate with incredible talents like Sheeba Ji and Samir, who bring so much depth to their craft. This was also one of my first projects, making it all the more special and memorable for me.”
Nidhi Singh, who plays the role of Chandani, shared, “My character, Chandani, is a blend of mischief and innocence, which made portraying her a truly rewarding experience. I particularly enjoyed exploring Chandani’s chemistry with Anshuman and Samir, as their bond evolves in a heartfelt and meaningful way, adding depth to the story. It was also wonderful to work with Sheeba Chaddha again; her talent and warmth made the experience even more special.”
Moonwalk promises to be a rollercoaster ride filled with laughter, suspense, and unpredictable twists.
