Black Warrant Trailer Out

Sunil Gupta inadvertently finds himself ensnared in a system dominated by power and reputation, where survival comes at a significant cost. Accompanied by two trusted jailers, he confronts the infamous inmates of Tihar and the deeply rooted political landscape. Equipped solely with resilience and resolve, this trio faces formidable obstacles within the prison. This unprecedented narrative delves into the intimate stories of inmates, and officers, and the intricate relationships that bind them. Will they dare to confront the system and instigate change, or will Tihar ultimately transform them?

From the creative visionaries Vikramaditya Motwane and Satyanshu Singh, who take on the roles of showrunners and directors alongside Ambiecka Pandit, Arkesh Ajay, and Rohin Raveendran Nair, Black Warrant offers an unvarnished exploration of India’s largest prison. The series is inspired by the book Black Warrant: Confessions of a Tihar Jailer, authored by Sunil Gupta and Sunetra Choudhury.

Vikramaditya Motwane states, "Black Warrant presented us with the chance to delve into a realm that is frequently obscured—challenging, intricate, and rife with contradictions. Sunil’s experiences within Tihar Jail offered a distinctive lens through which to portray that complexity. The trailer merely hints at how the series will unravel the layers of a world that is as harsh, multifaceted, and entertaining as it is. Working alongside our exceptional cast infused remarkable depth into this narrative, and our collaboration with Netflix, Applause Entertainment, and Confluence Media enabled us to develop a story that is authentic, compelling, and profoundly human. I eagerly anticipate the moment when audiences will discover the humanity and resilience embedded in this impactful narrative."

Witness the untold story behind the walls of Tihar Jail in Black Warrant, only on Netflix on January 10. Stay tuned to Mobile Masala for more information on this and everything else from the world of streaming and films.
