In the film, Tabu, Kareena, and Kriti are essaying the roles of “bad**” air hostesses. From stealing peanut boxes meant for flights to planning to earn a lot of money and raising the glam quotient, the trio has sought to grab eyeballs. Don’t miss their supremely elegant looks throughout the film.
`Crew` is a story of three women and is touted as a laugh-riot, set against the backdrop of the struggling airline industry. However, their destinies lead to some unwarranted situations and they get caught in a web of lies.

Recently, `Crew` writer duo Mehul Suri and Nidhi Mehra shared about the training session that the lead actresses went through for the role of air hostess. “They had former cabin crew members on set for a few days to help with authenticity. Tabu, Kareena, and Kriti paid close attention, asking questions and ensuring accuracy in their portrayal through constant communication with the team.”
The film is made under Balaji Telefilms and Anil Kapoor Film & Communications Network banners. It was slated to release on March 22, but the makers decided to push the film`s release to avert a clash with ‘Madgaon Express’ and ‘Swatantra Veer Savarkar’.
It has been backed by Rhea Kapoor who has previously bankrolled films like `Aisha` (2010), `Khoobsurat` (2014), `Veere Di Wedding` (2018), and `Thank You For Coming` (2023).
