Scoop was Mehta’s maiden series on the streaming platform which was inspired by a court case involving journalist Jigna Vora, who was accused of allegedly conspiring with gangster Chota Rajan in the murder of another prominent journalist in 2011. Taking this collaboration forward, Hansal will create multiple series for Netflix in the coming years. Scoop has been called a genre-defining series inspired by crime reporter Jigna Vora’s book ‘Behind Bars in Byculla: My Days in Prison.’ Audiences and critics alike have been captivated by the deeply layered characters and compelling storylines, hailing it as one of the most binge-worthy series of the year. Mehta is a National Award winning director instrumental in delivering many critically acclaimed films and series including Aligarh, Shahid, Citylights and Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story. “As a filmmaker, the idea of creating diverse and dynamic stories constantly keeps me on my toes. What excites me about this partnership with Netflix, which is home to some of the finest talent, is the potential for my work to reach viewers across the world. As was the case with Scoop, Netflix is engaged in the creative process right from scripting, all the way to marketing and distribution which is critical for the success of any creative collaboration. This long-term partnership with them is only going to empower me to dive into a variety of undiscovered stories,” he said. Over the years, docuseries and stories based on real life scams and personalities have captured the imaging of viewers. Another such series by Netflix was Bad Boy Billionaires: India, which documents the major financial scams that rocked India. These included some very colourful personalities like liquor baron <keyword id="14678" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="vijay-mallya" source="Orion">Vijay Mallya</keyword>, diamantaire Nirav Modi and Subrata Roy. According to Netflix, the investigative docu series explored the greed, fraud and corruption that built up — and ultimately brought down — India’s most infamous tycoons. Monika Shergill, Vice President - Content, Netflix India, said “Hansal is a master of his craft and has an eye for spotting stories that have a broad appeal and are relevant to a wide audience. Being a nuanced storyteller, he is able to tell these stories like no other. Scoop marks yet another success for our series line-up this year, and with this partnership we look forward to never before seen stories that audiences will love.” Netflix has had a successful year across series and films with titles such as Khakee - The Bihar Chapter, Rana Naidu, Class, Mission Majnu, Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga, Kathal and more.

It is the story of one of the biggest financial frauds carried out in 1992 that shook the Indian stock market and forced the market regulator to change the rules of the game on Dalal Street. Registered broker Harshad Mehta and his partners were accused of engaging in a massive stock manipulation on India's largest stock exchange, BSE, in 1992 by taking advantage of loopholes in the banking system. Mehta was accused of conspiring with the bank employees for obtaining fake bank receipts (BRs) issued, which he used in other banks to woo them to lend him money. He used these funds to <a href="https://www.thequint.com/explainers/where-is-the-rs-24000-crore-lost-in-the-harshad-mehta-securities-scam">buy a large amount of shares at a premium</a>. When veteran journalist Sucheta Dalal uncovered this scam, the banks realised that they owned the fake bank receipts. This led to the unraveling of the system. <div type="image" title="Harshad Mehta" msid="78571542" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Harshad Mehta &amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Mehta was convicted by the Bombay High Court and India's apex court for his part in a financial scandal valued at ₹500 crores, which took place on the BSE. The scandal exposed various loopholes in the Indian banking system and the stock market transaction system, which also forced SEBI to introduce new rules to cover the loopholes. Out of 27 criminal charges brought against Mehta, he was only convicted of four, before he died in 2001. The cast of Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story The web series cast includes Pratik Gandhi, Shreya Dhanwanthary, Satish Kaushik, Sharib Hashmi, Anant Mahadevan, Nikhil Dwivedi, KK Raina and Lalit Parimoo, among others.

Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story is streaming on SonyLIV— Here's what the infamous scam was all about

If you are in the age group of 18-40 years and own a smartphone, watching TV series and movies through apps is nothing new. Thanks to <keyword id="128682" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Netflix">Netflix</keyword>, Hotstar and TVF, who have ventured into the Indian <keyword id="1245953" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="OTT">OTT</keyword> (Over -the -Top) content landscape last year and made the urban youths accustomed to the culture of paying and watching original video contents ranging from TV series to stand up comedies and movies. And now, the OTTs would be in run for money as the <keyword id="6377522" type="POSITION" weightage="20" keywordseo="queen">Queen</keyword> of Television, <keyword id="6354597" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Ekta-Kapoor">Ekta Kapoor</keyword> has now ventured into the OTT front with Alt Balaji app. <keyword id="53" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kapoor">Kapoor</keyword>, who had revolutionised the daily television in the early 2000s with family soaps and made media coin the term ‘saas-bahu’ shows has always been successful with her ventures. Though the family dramas, which the millennials agree to be tacky or her horror movies that lacked sense, Kapoor has her signature magic that made them a major hit. However with the viewers in OTT being different from the homemakers, ALTBalaji will deal with original contents only. How is it different from the competitors? Unlike others, the platform will offer 250+ hours of original, exclusive content to its subscribers. This ad free, subscription based platform is now commercially available with few of these original shows. “The most endearing feature of ALTBalaji is its content; we are launching with the promise to bring fresh and never heard of stories to our viewers. While we are starting with 5 shows, it will be followed by a new show every 15 days for the binge watch lovers. On one hand we offer story of India’s first female in combative role- THE TEST CASE on the other we have most loved TV stars in KARRLE TU BHI MOHABBAT. It is intriguing and fresh story-telling,” Nachiket Pantvaidya, CEO of ALTBalaji told Business Insider. “ Content As far as the teasers are to be believed, ALTBalaji is showing a great change in its dimension. Ranging from gay love story to woman army commando’s struggle, it seems to have some great content. Regional take This is one point where ALTBalaji made a major impact. While most OTT are focussed on English language, Kapoor’s venture will have most regional shows ranging from Tamil, Odiya and Bengali. ALTBalaji definitely takes the brownie for understanding the potential vernacular market of India. No new talents? The shows on video on demand platform are created by the best talent of Indian entertainment industry including critically acclaimed directors and actors. The long illustrious list of artists comprises of Nagesh Kukunoor, <keyword id="6371319" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Juhi-Chawla">Juhi Chawla</keyword>, Nimrat Kaur, Rajkumar Rao, Hansal Mehta, Sakshi Tanwar, Ram Kapoor, Atul Kulkarni, <keyword id="7559" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Sameer-Soni">Sameer Soni</keyword>, Yudhishtar Urs, Dipannita Sharma Atwal, and many more. Does that mean unlike other OTTs, ALTBalaji will deal only with established actors and screenwriters and not give chance to new talents? Nachiket assures the first few series are planned with established ones but the door is open for new talents as well. Regularity One major issue with most OTTs who provide original contents is keeping with the pace. If the first series comes this month, the second season may appear after two months. Being in the business for more than decades, Kapoor’s ALTBalaji will have new series coming up every 15 days. <div type="image" title="ALTBalaji Logo" msid="58497517" hostid="261"></div>

 Pricing The introductory plan starts at Rs 300 for 12 months and Rs 100 for three months. However the normal plan will be Rs 90/month. Also the plan is to get the viewers watch first three episodes of all shows for free. We have seen tons of start ups focussing on app based OTT have been doing good business in India. But then most of the other OTTs are mostly in the area where TV shows are re-ran to keep the regular viewer updated in case he missed out on an episode. However ALTBalaji seems quite different.
