This captivating comedy-drama unfolds in the heartland of the country where the protagonist, Gannu, a small-time goon portrayed by Jitendra Kumar, embarks on a journey against the system.

“We are dedicated to bringing stories that are authentic and deeply entrenched in our culture to diverse audiences across India and beyond. Dry Day is a testament to this commitment of ours. Set in a small town in India, this coming-of-age tale, revolving around a flawed hero, intricately weaves a socially relevant and thought-provoking narrative through a compelling storyline. The film is a blend of a rich tapestry of flavours and quirky nuances,” said Aparna Purohit, head of India Originals, Prime Video. “Our journey with Emmay Entertainment has been exceptionally rewarding, and I am confident that Dry Day, our fifth collaboration, will receive immense love and appreciation from audiences.”
“Dry Day marks the beginning of an exciting new journey in the space of Hindi Original movies for us with Prime Video”, said Nikkhil Advani, Producer, Emmay Entertainment. ” The film is a social satire presented with a hilarious tragic-comedy of errors with lots of drama and emotions. Dry Day 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.”
