I feel like there are some incredible actors in that show, and Ajitpal Singh is

a genius, so I just can’t wait for everyone to see it.”

In March, Hrithik Roshan took to his Instagram to thank the team behind the series. In his note, Hrithik wrote, “Storm has been a deeply fulfilling journey for me. It began years ago with a conversation with Ajitpal, a mind I truly admire for his clarity, his humanity, and his cinematic vision. Today, to see it come alive feels incredibly special. I’m proud of this show, not just for its nuanced writing or the way it has been brought to screen, but for the people behind it. The sheer talent, the commitment, the heart. These actors have inspired the actor in me to raise my own bar.”
