Recently, Nani opened up about the HIT universe and whether the makers were planning to release any more parts of the beloved franchise.
Nani, in a conversation with Pinkvilla, said, "It's already a universe in its way. It's a cop universe, but I was saying that we have bigger plans, and as we move forward, maybe a fifth or sixth HIT. What if all the cops come together for something bigger, a big case? That would be very exciting for the audience.”
Speaking about the portrayal of violence in HIT: The Third Case, Nani revealed, “We let the script make the decision. We didn't really decide to make the third one an action film or anything like that.”
HIT: The Third Case is jointly produced by Unanimous Productions and Wall Poster Cinema.
