The teaser depicts a hurt and bewildered Bhatt, a menacing Sharma, a jealous Roshan Mathew, and a mother-daughter pair at a police department for a murder investigation as the story draws closer to the scorpion showing its true colours.

The actress from Gangubai Kathiawadi is shown in the last frames sporting a red pout and an off-the-shoulder blood red outfit while looking in the mirror and seemed to be planning something vindictive or rebellious.

Vishal Bhardwaj, a filmmaker and composer, created the music soundtrack for the movie, which is directed by rookie Jasmeet K Reen. The movie Darlings, which was co-produced with Shah Rukh Khan"s Red Chillies Entertainment, is Bhatt and the King after Dear Zindagi.

But Bhatt will continue to astonish us this year in other ways.

Alongside Gal Gadot in Heart of Stone, the Gully Boy star is currently filming her Hollywood debut.
