Netflix India announced their first Indian original series some months ago. Gladly, the series ‘Sacred Games’ seems to be just the kick start that we needed for an Indian original. The show stars Saif Ali Khan, Radhika Apte and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in lead roles. While the first looks and teaser kept us excited for the show, the trailer is here to take our breath away.
“Suno na, life badalne wali hai tumhari”
The trailer finally establishes the much-awaited connection between the three characters. Nawazuddin as Ganesh Gaitonde is the mafia and drug lord ruling the dark underworld of Mumbai. Saif is the innocent and righteous cop, Sartaj Singh, who is willing to go beyond boundaries to save his city from all evil. Radhika is the undercover investigation who seeks out to Saif for helping her solve the mystery behind this drug lord and his intentions.

Gaitonde makes an unanticipated call to Singh telling him how he has just a month to save his city from the crisis. But what crisis and why Gaitonde chose him over others? Singh is left clueless. Saif, as Sartaj, is desperate to figure out the mess and clean it for good. But all falls to the ground when his department suspends him for supposedly having a link with the mafia lord. He is left alone and oblivious. That is when Radhika comes to his rescue.
As the trailer progresses, Sartaj learns that it all goes back to his late father, who has some connection with Gaitonde. But will they find out what and how? Gaitonde declares that is the one and only empowered. The Almighty. The God. The trailer also gives us a glimpse at dirty links of the underworld with the glamour world running in Mumbai’s underbelly. Here we have a cop ‘without a cause’ and a villain as a ‘criminal without a code’. The trailer is as interesting as it can get.
It is not just these three stars who will shine through. Varun Sharma, Sameer Kochhar, Parizaad Kolah will also join the troupe including with others. Helmed by Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane, the series will release on July 6, 2018. We’re saving the date. You should too.
