Hrithik Roshan Moves Behind the Camera for Prime Video Thriller ‘Storm’

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Hrithik Roshan is producing a series for the first time, backing a Mumbai-based thriller called Storm coming to Prime Video via HRX Films (part of FilmKraft Productions). The streamer announced the project this week, describing it as a high-stakes drama built around an ensemble of women leads.

The series is created and directed by Ajitpal Singh, whose feature Fire in the Mountains drew festival attention in recent years, with the narrative developed by Singh together with Francois Lunel and Swati Das. Roshan is producing alongside his brother Eshaan Roshan, and the announcement was made as part of Prime Video’s broader 2026 slate reveal in Mumbai, where a second HRX Films project, Mess, was also announced, according to independent reports.

The cast includes Parvathy Thiruvothu, Alaya F, Srishti Shrivastava, Rrama Sharma, and Saba Azad. Filming will commence in the near term, with no confirmed timeline or premiere date disclosed.

Gaurav Gandhi, Prime Video’s vice president for APAC and MENA, called the partnership with Roshan and HRX Films a milestone for the platform’s push into what he described as storytelling that resonates with global audiences. Roshan, in his own statement, said the streaming move felt like an instinctive choice given Prime Video’s track record, and pointed to Singh’s script as the draw, calling the world of the story raw and layered.

Over 20 years, Roshan has established himself as a top-tier Hindi film actor and six-time Filmfare Award winner. A producing credit on a streaming series is a new lane for him, and Storm is the test case.

Studio CarryOnHarry will be watching whether Storm signals a real pivot toward series production for Roshan or a one-off experiment tied to this particular script.
