As a Mumbaikar I feel strongly for the societal happenings. Ours is a story that traces the triggers for a boy’s personal crusade against the system.”

“In Harshvardhan I found an actor having no baggage, raw and real, someone who could easily take up the challenge of being a common man as well as a masked Superhero. He exhibits all the vulnerabilities of a common man, the anger, the frustration, the quest for change…” adds Vikramaditya Motwane.

While Sunil Lulla, Managing Director of Eros International adds, “There is a Bhavesh Joshi in all of us. It is the undeterred motivation that drives an ordinary individual to do the extra-ordinary.”

Co-producer Shibasish Sarkar of Reliance Entertainment says, “It is a very socially relevant film. In a time where the youth is actively participating, voicing their opinions on issues affecting the well being of the society, Bhavesh Joshi Superhero only channelizes as a vigilante drama the effort of a common man to make a difference in his fight against corruption.”
