The trailer of Reporting Live, an upcoming investigative thriller starring Parineeti Chopra and Amol Palekar, was released on Saturday. Directed by Dhruv Tripathi, the film focuses on illegal sand mining, crime and a journalist’s attempt to uncover the truth behind a tragic incident. The two minute trailer introduces Parineeti Chopra as a reporter who begins investigating the case with Deven Bhojani, who plays her cameraman. Their work takes them into an investigation where illegal sand mining is shown as a business connected to money, crime and powerful people. As they try to understand what happened, they find themselves dealing with people who do not want the truth to become public.
The investigation becomes increasingly dangerous as the reporter and her cameraman move closer to the people connected to the case. The trailer shows threats, tense confrontations, chase sequences and scenes of violence as the two journalists continue looking for answers. Instead of simply following the criminal activity, the story focuses on how the journalists investigate the incident and try to find the people responsible. Their search puts them under pressure as they come up against individuals who have a reason to keep the details of the case hidden. The trailer therefore establishes the central conflict between the journalists trying to report the truth and those attempting to stop them from doing so.
Along with Parineeti Chopra, Amol Palekar and Deven Bhojani, the film features Adil Hussain and Shekhar Suman in important roles. Bhojani’s character remains closely involved in the investigation as Chopra’s cameraman, making the pair central to the story. Reporting Live marks Dhruv Tripathi’s feature film directorial debut.
He has also co written the screenplay with Mihir Jadhav. The film is produced by Partha Kiran Thakur and Joshua Shirsath. Its central subject is illegal sand mining and the conflicts that can develop around money and power. The investigation into one incident gradually takes the journalists towards people who want the truth concealed. Reporting Live will premiere on Netflix on October 9, 2026.
