Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar
With projects like Dil Chahta Hai (2001), Rock On! (2008), Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011) and the Fukrey franchise, Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani changed the sensibilities of Indian cinema. They took it a notch higher with their digital outings on Amazon Prime, Inside Edge, Mirzapur and Made in Heaven. But now, Akhtar and Sidhwani are developing two big-budget shows for the rival platform, Netflix.
"While the first series is a comedy, their second outing [for Netflix] is touted as a mammoth espionage spy thriller. The yet-untitled series will be shot in seven countries," informed a trade source and added, "Farhan and Ritesh are in talks with Netflix for their upcoming digital shows. Everything is kept under wraps till the deal is done, but research and scripting for the two shows are simultaneously on. They will go on floors this year and air by 2021."
