Prime Video, Hrithik Roshan’s HRX Films collaborate for ‘Mess’

Prime Video announced its upcoming Prime Original movie Mess. This comedy marks the second collaboration between the streaming service and HRX Films (a division of FilmKraft Productions), following the announcement of the thriller series Storm.

Produced by Hrithik Roshan and Eshaan Roshan under the banner of HRX Films along with Rajesh A Krishnan‘s Soda Films Lab, Mess is directed by Krishnan. The original screenplay for the film was written by American writer Paul Soter and the adapted screenplay and dialogues are written by Kapil Sawant.

Mess tells the story about a motley group of robbers, who upon invading the family house of a man with OCD, slowly realise, it’s not the family but them who need to survive this night-long standoff.

“A key marker of a good story is if it takes you by surprise and keeps you entertained throughout. With Mess, we have a story that does not only that but makes you laugh at every step.” said Nikhil Madhok, Director and Head of Originals, Prime Video India.

“Storm marked the start of something special with Prime Video, and Mess feels like a natural next step for us at HRX Films,” said producer Hrithik Roshan. “Rajesh brings a distinctive voice both as a producer and director, with a rare ability to blend comedy with compelling narratives. His creative vision for Mess has been extraordinary from the start. As production ramps up, Eshaan and I are beyond excited by the potential of this project. We believe this film will resonate with audiences who appreciate fresh, unconventional stories that push the boundaries of the genre.”

Speaking about this upcoming project, Krishnan, who’s filmmaking credits include movies and series known for their comedic sensibilities said, “Developing Mess alongside Kapil has been a truly rewarding experience – it has been great to collaborate with him once again. The world of this film is a thrilling amalgamation of comedy and chaos, and unusual enough to keep one at the edge of their seats.”
