After a successful theatrical run that saw it emerge as the second highest-grossing Gujarati film of 2025, ‘Chaniya Toli’ has now made its way to the digital space. The film is currently streaming on ShemarooMe, giving a wider audience the chance to catch a story that stood out for its audacious idea and unconventional narrative.
According to a Shemaroo press release, the digital premiere of ‘Chaniya Toli’ is part of the platform’s ongoing effort to showcase films that move beyond predictable formats and familiar storytelling patterns. With its mix of humour, thrill and social commentary, the film adds to ShemarooMe’s growing catalogue of regional cinema with a distinct voice.
Directed around an unexpected and almost unbelievable plan, ‘Chaniya Toli’ stars Yash Soni alongside Netri Trivedi, Chetan Dahiya, Heena Varde, Maulik Nayak, Sohni Bhatt, Kalpana Gagdekar and Jay Bhatt. What begins as a personal quest for meaning soon transforms into a larger mission to rescue a village trapped in a severe financial crisis. The protagonist’s outrageous scheme to outsmart those responsible sets the stage for a narrative filled with twists, wit and rebellion.
One of the film’s most striking elements is the way the women of the village rise as fearless changemakers. As the plan unfolds, they emerge as the backbone of the operation, challenging societal norms and redefining power in moments of high stakes. The story repeatedly nudges the viewer to question what happens when ordinary people refuse to accept their fate and choose to attempt the unthinkable.
Sharing his thoughts on the digital release, lead actor Yash Soni said ‘Chaniya Toli’ stood apart for its unpredictable storyline and its ability to balance humour with tension. He noted that the idea of a plan that feels impossible, yet slowly comes together, was what drew him to the project, adding that the strong theatrical response made the film’s arrival on ShemarooMe even more special.
With its digital premiere, ‘Chaniya Toli’ continues its journey as more than just a heist-style entertainer. It is also a celebration of community, courage and the quiet strength of women who dare to rewrite their destinies. Now streaming on ShemarooMe, the film invites viewers into a world where logic is constantly tested, intentions blur, and one unlikely plan keeps everyone guessing till the very end.
