Speaking about Mayday, the thrilling drama will be helmed by Ajay Devgn and marks his reunion with Amitabh Bachchan on the big screen after nine years. Their last collaboration was the 2013 film Satyagraha. Rakul Preet Singh essays the role of a co-pilot in the film.

"I have worked with Ajay sir in the past and extremely thrilled to be working with him yet again as his co-pilot in a film where he is not just my co-star but director too. When I decided to be an actor like all the other aspiring actors, I had a dream to work with Mr. Bachchan, and I am so glad that with this film my dream to share screen space with him will come true," the De De Pyaar De actress had earlier said in a statement.

Notably, Mayday marks the acting debut of YouTuber Ajay Nagar popularly known as CarryMinati.
