The trailer of the film had released recently during which Sumeet expressed why he was excited to be a part of this \u201chilarious\u201d film.<\/p>\n
\u201cMore than the platform the content gives me more satisfaction. More than the medium, the story has to be attractive. This film has fantastic ensemble. This is a hilarious, wacky story,\u201d Sumeet told reporters at the trailer launch of High Jack. The film also stars Sonnalli Seygall and Mantra. It is directed by Akarsh Khurana and produced by Madhu Mantena.<\/p>\n

Mantra, who is a stand-up comedian, joked that he was not given any punch lines this time. \u201cComedians are never taken seriously but there are few comedians who are taking themselves very seriously. I was told it is a serious character and that I have no punch line in the film,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
