Meanwhile, on the professional front, Hansal Mehta hogged the limelight for directing Amazon Prime Video’s sports black comedy film ‘Chhalaang’ starring Rajkummar Rao and Nushrat Bharucha in lead roles.
He will soon be donning the director’s hat for the second instalment of ‘Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story’, tentatively titled ‘Scam 2003: The Curious Case of Abdul Karim Telgi’. The upcoming series will delve into the life of Abdul Karim Telgi, the mastermind of the 2003 Stamp Paper scam whose value was estimated to be around a whopping Rs. 20,000 crore.
‘Scam 2003’ will be adapted from the Hindi book ‘Reporter ki Diary’, authored by journalist Sanjay Singh, who broke the scam at that time. Acclaimed Marathi writer Kiran Yadnyopavit has also been roped in to develop the show along with Singh.
The show that will reportedly go on floors by the end of the year and release in 2022 on SonyLIV is being produced by Applause Entertainment in association with StudioNEXT.
