Kaveri Das, Business Head, Hindi ZEE5 shared, “Dakuaan Da Munda 3 is not just a film—it’s a testament to the power of Punjabi cinema to tell stories that are raw, real, and universally relatable. By blending high-octane action with a deeply emotional narrative, it speaks about struggles and triumphs that transcend borders. At ZEE5, we’re proud to bring this critically acclaimed franchise to a global stage, where its themes of redemption and resilience can inspire audiences everywhere.”
Dev Kharoud, who plays the lead, commented, “Dakuaan Da Munda 3 is not just an action-crime drama—it’s a journey of survival, courage, and the indomitable human spirit. My character allowed me to step into the shoes of someone whose life is upended by the cracks in a corrupt system. Portraying her struggle was not just about performance, but about feeling the weight of injustice, pain, and the search for redemption. For me, the film is a reminder that even in the harshest realities, resilience and love can light the way forward. I’m truly grateful to ZEE5 for bringing this story to audiences across the globe because I believe its raw intensity and emotional depth will resonate universally.”
Baani Sandhu added, “Dakuaan Da Munda 3 is far more than an action-crime drama—it’s a story of survival, courage, and the strength of human spirit. Playing my role in this film allowed me to explore emotions that go beyond performance; it was about living through a world of pain, loss, and ultimately, hope. For me, the film is a reminder that even in the darkest circumstances, resilience and love can be guiding forces. I’m excited that ZEE5 is giving us the platform to share this story globally. I believe audiences everywhere will connect with the raw intensity of the narrative and with the emotional heartbeat that drives it.”
