Mercy Cast And Plot Details

Adil Hussain as Father Joel, a beacon of hope in despair; Kunal Bhan as Vihaan, the torn brother; Aparna Ghoshal as Sujata, the matriarch of the family; and NiharicaRaizada as Jiya, the loyal companion

Mercy, which stars Raj Vasudeva, Niharica Raizada, Kunal Bhan, and Adil Hussain in a starring role, is a moving examination of love, grief, and the ability to let go. Directed by newbie Mitul Patel, the film is a poignant meditation on acceptance, memory, and the resilience of the human spirit, rather than a story of death, as it delicately depicts a family navigating the difficult reality of losing a loved one.

Lead actor and producer Raj Vasudeva, who plays Shekhar, expressed his gratitude, "I feel truly overwhelmed by the love and encouragement audiences have given us at every festival so far. To see people connect so deeply with Shekhar’s journey is humbling. Every kind word, every tear, strengthens our conviction to keep telling stories that matter."

Adil Hussain shared, "I am humbled to see Mercy crossing continents. Every film teaches us something new and this is no different, Mercy holds a special place in my heart as it comes from the depth of belonging, love and despair which gives all characters the depth to dig deep in the sea of emotions like never before. It’s in those fragile moments you understand how a choice can turn around the fate of your and loved ones' lives. Can't wait for all to feel what we felt while making this when it releases worldwide.

It is produced under the Everclear Films banner. Mercy furthers Everclear Films' dedication to presenting stories that are both audacious and profoundly human.
