When three flight attendants strapped for cash stumble on a gold-smuggling ring just as their employer goes bankrupt, they covertly join in to save their livelihoods. Written by Nidhi Mehra and Mehul Suri (Veere Di Wedding), the comedy-thriller Crew from director Rajesh Krishnan (Lootcase), stars Tabu, Kareena Kapoor, and Kriti Sanon. When the movie premiered in India in March, it swiftly became the third-highest-grossing Hindi film of 2024 and one of Bollywood’s top-grossing women-led films.

What happens in Crew?

When Geeta’s husband, Arun (Kapil Sharma), had to leave the family business, the couple was forced to downsize from a palace to a modest apartment in Mumbai. To make ends meet, Geeta (Tabu) got a job as a flight attendant, and Arun began a food delivery service. Geeta longs to move to Goa, where she wants them to open their own restaurant. 

Divya (Sanon) was top of her class and trained to be a pilot, but the recession hit and left her without a job. She pretends that she’s a pilot to her family, but in reality she’s a flight attendant who can’t afford to pay off the loan she owes.

Jasmine (Kapoor) has always had a taste for the finer things, despite growing up in poverty. She’s been trying to get her skin care business off the ground, but needs funding. 

What do these three have in common besides being flat broke? They all work as flight attendants for Kohinoor Airlines — and haven’t been paid their salaries in months. So when they find their aging colleague Mr. Rajvanshi (Daayama) dead mid-flight with gold bricks strapped to his chest, it plants a seed. Not only is Kohinoor on the brink of bankruptcy, but a number of its senior employees are running a gold-smuggling operation on the side. So Geeta, Divya, and Jasmine — in dire straits after news of the company’s financial woes — hit up Kohinoor’s head of HR, Mr. Mittal (Rajesh Sharma), to get them in on the side biz. Will the trio run enough gold to cash in on a big payday before they’re caught dead in their tracks?
