Vishal Bharadwaj’s son Aasmaan Bhardwaj is at the cusp of making his film-making debut with a multi-starrer heist-thriller Kuttey. The film starring Arjun Kapoor has already made quite a buzz with its dark and brooding trailer and some interesting character intros. And now it’s looking forward to passing the litmus test at the box office on January 13.
