Directed by Jai Basantu Singh and written by Raaj Shaandilyaa, 'Janhit Mein Jaari' is a comedy-drama and stars Paritosh Tripathi, Shaan yadav, Vijay Raaz among others. Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, the film has opened to poor occupancy on day one of its release and has reportedly suffered the cancellation of shows. Released on June 10, the film has managed to collect Rs 2 crore on ticket windows. 

With 'Chhalaang' Nushrratt took a leap in her career when filmmakers started to look at her beyond glam roles, after which she went on to feature in films like 'Chhorii', 'Ajeeb Daastaans' and now 'Janhit Mein Jaari'. She has also expressed her desire to work with Hansal Mehta once more if given a chance.

She will be now next seen in 'Selfiee' opposite Akshay Kumar and Emraan Hashmi, 'Ram Setu' opposite Akshay Kumar and 'Chhorii 2'.
