Jackie Shroff’s horror film Kaali Kheti out on October 23

Jackie Shroff and Sharad Kelkar’s rural horror film Kaali Kheti will release in theatres on October 23, 2026.
The makers announced the date with the film’s first poster. The poster sets an ominous mood but keeps the central mystery under wraps.
The film stars Jackie Shroff, Sharad Kelkar and Neha Sargam. It is written and directed by Haris Imtiyaz Khan. The story is set against a rural backdrop, with family, legacy and buried secrets at its centre.
Khan said the film examines agriculture through the lens of horror. He called it a fresh and disturbing take on a familiar subject, describing it as a mirror to society set in a scary and fantastical world.
The director said the rural setting forms an important part of the narrative. Rather than revealing the horror elements in the first look, the makers have chosen to keep the mystery around the film’s world.
Kaali Kheti joins a busy October release calendar that includes several star-led Hindi films.
