Ileana D’Cruz will soon be seen as the female lead in the crime thriller, ‘Raid’, which is based on some of the most high-profile income tax raids conducted in the 80s. In the film, which has been shot in Lucknow, the actress plays the character of Malini Patnaik, a brave woman who not only battles the vagaries of life in services, but also faces threatening challenges as she and her husband are targeted for their integrity. Ajay Devgn plays her husband Amay, who is the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax.
Ileana’s character underlines the anxiety, unpredictability and helplessness spouses face when they have no clue about the whereabouts of their better halves during an active raid. Malini is witty, human, sometimes vulnerable, and someone who speaks her mind. She is her husband’s pillar of strength.
Director Raj Kumar Gupta shares, “The officers, who were helping us during the research kept insisting that if they did not have the strength and support of their wives, they would not have been able to do the work that they did. So, Malini is a tribute to all these brave women.”
