Co-produced by Phantom Films and Eros International, NH10 also marks Anushka Sharma's debut as a producer.
Also up for release this weekend is the comic drama Focus, starring Will Smith and Margot Robbie in the lead roles. A conman (Will Smith) reluctantly falls in love with a like-minded woman who eventually becomes his partner-in-crime. The two make a successful team but eventually fall apart, only to be reunited in the end.
Neill Blomkamp's science fiction Chappie, starring Sharlto Copley, Dev Patel, Jose Pablo Cantillo and Hugh Jackman also releases today. The film revolves around the escapades of a police robot who is stolen and develops the ability to think and feel for himself after a software upgrade.
