I had no idea this show existed until I discovered it was based on a real-life murder in Nagpur. This alone attracted me in. But what kept me interested was not simply the local backdrop or the murder plan, but the unanswered questions and mystery surrounding the case, which is still partially unsolved to this day.

The series unfolds in six tightly-packed episodes, each around 40 minutes. From the very first episode, you’re drawn into the mystery – helped by real-life footage integrated into the narrative, giving the storytelling an authentic documentary feel.
