NH10 is a 2015 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film directed by Navdeep Singh and written by Sudip Sharma.

NH10 was jointly produced by Clean Slate Filmz, Phantom Films, Eros International and marked the production debut of Sharma.

It tells the story of a young couple whose road trip goes awry after an encounter with a group of violent criminals.

The film was conceived by Singh and written by Sudip Sharma, who were inspired by some real-life honour killing murder cases.

The soundtrack album was composed by Sanjeev-Darshan, Bann Chakraborty, Abhiruchi Chand, Ayush Shrestha, Savera Mehta and Samira Koppikar.

NH10 was originally scheduled for release on 6 March 2015, but was postponed because it had not been cleared by the Indian Central Board of Film Certification.

Arjun suggests a road trip for Meera's upcoming birthday; the couple start their journey the next day, while stopping at a roadside dhaba for lunch, a young woman called Pinky arrives and pleads for help; Pinky tells the couple she and her husband are about to be murdered.

Meera and Arjun see a gang of men round up Pinky and a young man, beat them and drag them into their vehicle.

As the gang dig a grave for their victims, Satbir uses Meera and Arjun's gun to shoot Pinky and the man in front of them.

Satbir drags her out in front of Ammaji and beat her ruthlessly by slapping her repeatedly and also punches her hard in the stomach.

However, Meera manages to escape with the gang's SUV by threatening to harm Satbir's son and rushes to the railway bridge where she finds Arjun has been murdered.

Grief-stricken, Meera returns to the village to avenge Arjun's death; she drives the SUV at the gang members and kills them.

After that, he read several scripts for his next project and began work on the zombie comedy Rock the Shaadi and the spy thriller Basra, but both films were shelved.

[5] He said the idea of the film was to "show the stark contrast between two Indias, something that has been creating a lot of economic and social problems".

[7] His production team had "self-censored" from showing blood in the film because he thought the mainstream Indian audience does not have an "appetite for gore".

While she was filming for Bombay Velvet (2015), its director Anurag Kashyap told Sharma that Singh was trying to make NH10.

[13] To further prepare for his role, Kumar listened to Haryanvi songs and interacted with locals around National Highway 10 to observe how they behaved.

[31] The soundtrack album of NH10 was composed by Sanjeev–Darshan, Bann Chakraborty, Abhiruchi Chand, Ayush Shrestha, Savera Mehta and Samira Koppikar.

[32] The album has nine songs, which have vocals by artists including Kanika Kapoor, Dipanshu Pandit, Mohit Chauhan, Neeti Mohan and Shilpa Rao.

[52] Rajeev Masand wrote that the film is a "standard genre movie on the surface" with layers of "rich subtext" that delivers "so much more than your average thriller".

[54] Srijana Mitra Das of The Times of India gave a positive response, saying, "It's easy to hate NH10 while watching it because it's one of the most terrifying Hindi films ever—while simultaneously, you love its brilliance".

[57] Mihir Fadnavis of Firstpost praised Sharma's performance, calling it "terrific" and the film a "gripping and entertaining thriller".

[58] Contrasting with the highly positive reviews, Shubhra Gupta wrote that Sharma's character was not believable; "Meera, dragging a sharp bhala on the ground, with the soundtrack helpfully amplifying the sound, does not leave me cheering".

[69][70] After the film's critical and commercial success, the producers of NH10 confirmed they would be making a sequel named NH12, which will explore a similar theme.

[71][72] As of June 2018[update], NH10 was being remade in the Tamil language with the title Garjanai and starring Trisha in the lead role.
