Prime Video has dropped the intense trailer of its upcoming original series Raakh, a disturbing, emotionally heavy investigation that goes far beyond a typical crime thriller. Headlined by Ali Fazal, Sonali Bendre, Rakesh Bedi, and Aamir Bashir, the series is set against the backdrop of late 1970s Delhi and follows a horrifying case that leaves an entire city shaken.
The series explores how one brutal crime shattered the sense of security forever, exposing disturbing layers of violence, trauma, and moral decay. The Ranga-Billa case, officially known as the Geeta and Sanjay Chopra kidnapping and murder case, is one of India's most shocking criminal cases.
The series blends procedural storytelling with an intense examination of grief and the darkness that can exist beneath ordinary lives. Ali Fazal, who plays the role of Sub-Inspector Jayprakash, said that the story surprised him from the very beginning and that it is a character study as much as it is a police procedural.
The series features a strong supporting cast, including Akash Makhija, Ramandeep Yadav, Divya Sharma, Vivaan Sharma, Anshul Chauhan, and Dibyendu Bhattacharya in pivotal roles. Directed and executive produced by Prosit Roy, Raakh has been created, written, and co-directed by Anusha Nandakumar and Sandeep Saket, with dialogues by Ayush Trivedi. The series premieres on June 12 on Prime Video.
