The crime series, which will be out on Netflix, follows the epic tussle between two men on both sides of the law -- one a dreaded gang lord and the other a fiercely upright Indian Police Service officer Amit Lodha.


Karan Tacker, Avinash Tiwary, Ashutosh Rana, Ravi Kishan, Anup Soni, Jatin Sarna, Nikita Dutta, Abhimanyu Singh, Aishwarya Sushmita and Shraddha Das will headline Khakee.

Speaking about his collaboration with Netflix and his upcoming series, Neeraj Pandey said "As an admirer of the platform which stands for such diversity in content and formats, I am elated to announce Friday Storytellers's Partnership with Netflix with our upcoming series Khakee-The Bihar Chapter.


"This cop and crime thriller, set in the early 2000s, from the heartland of Bihar is a big story which we have been wanting to create and share for sometime and through the directorial lens of Bhav Dhulia and the production expertise of my partner Shital Bhatia, we have endeavoured to bring the flavour alive with the tonality and treatment. Shot in extreme trying circumstances at Jharkhand and Bihar across multiple Covid waves, it boasts of a talented ensemble depicting strong characters which we hope will resonate with the local and the global Netflix audiences."

More details regarding the project are awaited.
