KILL (2024) guide: Lakshya's train-set Hindi action thriller. India release date, JioHotstar OTT release, cast, runtime and where to watch online.

KILL (2024) Synopsis: A Love Story Derailed by a Train Robbery

Amrit Rathod (Lakshya) is a soldier trained for combat. His personal life is less under control. Tulika Singh (Tanya Maniktala), the woman he loves, is being pushed into an arranged engagement with another man, Jass Pratap Singh. She has not chosen this match.

Amrit decides he cannot stand by. He gets on the same overnight train to New Delhi that Tulika and her family are taking, hoping to stop the marriage before it happens.

The journey soon turns into something much darker. A large gang of robbers armed with knives moves through the coaches, attacking and threatening the passengers. Trapped in narrow corridors and crowded compartments with nowhere to run, Amrit has to use his military training to fight back, one attacker at a time.

The premise is simple: a romance, a moving train and a confined space where every confrontation is up close. That makes KILL a lean, high-octane action thriller built around one man taking on many.
