Produced by Hrithik Roshan and Eshaan Roshan under the banner of HRX Films, alongside Rajesh A Krishnan's Soda Films Lab, *Mess* is directed by Krishnan. The original screenplay was penned by American writer Paul Soter, while the adapted screenplay and dialogue were written by Kapil Sawant. The film follows a mismatched group of robbers who, after breaking into the home of a man with OCD, gradually realize that it is not the family but themselves who must survive the night-long confrontation.
“ A key marker of a good story is if it takes you by surprise and keeps you entertained throughout.
With *Mess*, we have a story that not only does that but makes you laugh at every step,” said Nikhil Madhok, Director and Head of Originals, Prime Video India. “The movie has a refreshingly original premise and a unique set of delightful characters. Hrithik and Eshaan, through HRX Films, bring a strong creative instinct and a genuine passion for storytelling, and after *Storm*, we are delighted to deepen our partnership further with this film. Rajesh A Krishnan is brilliant in this genre, and *Mess* has all the makings of a film that we believe will be loved by audiences in India and across the world.”
“ *Storm* marked the start of something special with Prime Video, and *Mess* feels like a natural next step for us at HRX Films," said producer Hrithik Roshan. "
Our partnership with Prime Video has allowed us to explore bold, innovative storytelling, and this project embodies that spirit perfectly. Rajesh brings a distinctive voice both as a producer and director, with a rare ability to blend comedy with compelling narratives. His creative vision for *Mess* has been extraordinary from the start. As production ramps up, Eshaan and I are beyond excited by the potential of this project. We believe this film will resonate with audiences who appreciate fresh, unconventional stories that push the boundaries of the genre.”
Speaking about this upcoming project, Krishnan, whose filmmaking credits include movies and series known for their comedic sensibilities, said, “Developing *Mess* alongside Kapil has been a truly rewarding experience — it has been great to collaborate with him once again.
The world of this film is a thrilling amalgamation of comedy and chaos, and unusual enough to keep one on the edge of their seats. This film has been a creatively fulfilling and collaborative experience. Hrithik and Eshaan have brought their expertise and conviction to the film, and together, we have a dream cast to work with. As we move to production, I am grateful for all the support from HRX Films and Prime Video and convinced that the film has found the right home.”
As the film gears up for production, more details will be unveiled soon.
