The gripping teaser of The India Story: Slow Poison in Progress takes viewers into a battle for justice. Kajal Aggarwal and Shreyas Talpade are seen uncovering the dark reality of pesticide farming and its hidden dangers.
The film highlights how toxic chemicals are increasingly entering everyday food consumption, raising serious health concerns, especially among the younger generation. With an emotional and socially relevant storyline, the movie sheds light on an issue that often remains ignored despite its widespread impact.
Talking about the film, Director Chettan DK said, “The India Story is not just a film; it is a conversation that we as a society need to have. Through this story, we wanted to shed light on the alarming reality of Pesticide Farming and the silent health crisis it creates. The teaser is only a glimpse into a much larger issue that affects millions of families every day. Our aim is to create awareness, provoke thought, and encourage audiences to question what ends up on their plates.”
Shreyas Talpade said, “What drew me to The India Story was the relevance of its subject. Pesticide Farming is an issue that affects every household, yet we rarely stop to think about its long-term consequences. Through my character’s journey, I hope audiences connect with the emotional struggle of an ordinary parent fighting against a system much larger than himself. This is a story that entertains, but more importantly, it starts an important conversation.”

As a mother, the story resonated with me on a very personal level because it reflects the fears and concerns that many parents carry today.

I hope the film creates awareness and encourages people to be more conscious about the food they consume and the impact it has on future generations.”
