In a startling revelation that highlights the often-murky world of film distribution, actress Nagma Akhtar recently discovered that her film, "Ayaash Dil," had been released on the ZEE5 streaming platform in 2023 without her knowledge. The actress learned about the film's release through a casual conversation with a co-actor at a café. Akhtar mentioned that "Ayaash Dil" never saw the light of day, only to be corrected by her colleague, who informed her that the film had, in fact, premiered on ZEE5.

This revelation was particularly shocking for Akhtar, as she had not been informed about the release, nor had she participated in any promotional activities or premiere events. Furthermore, she hadn't even dubbed for the film, indicating a complete disconnect between the production and the actress. The film's release occurred without her involvement, knowledge, or any professional benefit.

"Ayaash Dil," directed by A. Abhishek, features Sashreek Samarth Mishra, Nidhi Mahawan, Alisha, and Taranjeet Khanna alongside Akhtar. The romantic thriller explores themes of love, ambition, betrayal, and obsession.

The incident raises serious questions about transparency and ethical practices within the film industry. It underscores a hidden side of filmmaking, where films sometimes reach the market without the awareness of the artists involved. In an industry that heavily relies on visibility, premieres, and announcements, the lack of communication in Akhtar's case is particularly concerning. This situation highlights the potential for exploitation and disregard for actors' rights in certain corners of the industry. It remains to be seen if Akhtar will pursue any legal recourse or action following this discovery.
