Netflix has released the trailer for its upcoming dark comedy Toaster which shows a world that becomes humorous because one man develops an extreme need to save money. 

The film which stars Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra will make its debut on April 15.

The film Toaster which Kampa Film released showcases Ramakant as its main character who embodies extreme frugality. Rajkummar Rao's character appears in the trailer as a diehard miser who sees every saved rupee as his personal victory.

The toaster gift he presented at the wedding becomes a strange situation because his unyielding thinking results in its unintended waste.

The first attempt to reclaim the appliance leads to a sequence of events which becomes increasingly disordered. Ramakant’s determination not to let go of something he has spent money on drags not only himself but also those around him into a whirlwind of confusion and unintended consequences.

The film presents an impressive cast which includes Archana Puran Singh, Abhishek Banerjee, Farah Khan, Upendra Limaye, Vinod Rawat, Jitendra Joshi and Seema Pahwa. The characters of the story add unique personality traits and personal goals which create depth in the plot while building up its pace to the climax.

Sharing his thoughts on the project, Rajkummar Rao said, “This is a special one for me as it marks our first film under our production house Kampa Film and produced by Patralekhaa. I’m truly excited to bring this story to audiences. What really drew me to Toaster was how something so small can completely take over a person’s mind. Ramakant is someone who genuinely believes he’s doing the right thing. He doesn’t see his actions as extreme he sees them as practical. But that’s exactly what makes the journey so unpredictable. It’s a story that comes from a very real place and watching that sincerity spiral into chaos is what makes the film both engaging and entertaining. It was also a joy working with such a brilliant cast which really brought this world to life. It feels great to be working with Netflix again. They’ve always championed new stories and storytellers, and it’s exciting to be working both behind and in front of the camera this time.”
