200 Halla Ho Release: What is revealed in the teaser?

As the teaser opens, we find a group of 200 women forcefully entering a courtroom and a reporter covering the news. Later, we meet Amol Palekar's playing Vitthal Dangle. He is a retired High Court judge who firmly believes in the sanctity of law and opposes vigilante service. In the trailer, he refers to a particular act as execution, not murder. He looks like a man in conflict with his beliefs. Will his emotional turmoil make him relook at justice differently? Only time will tell us that.

The film is about 200 Dalit women who take law and justice into their own hands by lynching a gangster/robber/serial rapist in open court. Actor Sahil Khattar who has earlier worked in projects like Fair and Square and Date Trap will be seen playing the role of a serial killer in this film. Sharing his first look as Balli Choudhary from the movie on Instagram, he said that from being "The Funny Guy" to playing India's deadliest "Serial Killer," the journey of his OTT debut has been truly "khattarnaak".
