Salakaar is a captivating spy drama that unfolds across two timelines, examining how the past influences the present. The series follows a young Indian intelligence officer on a covert mission that uncovers hidden truths and sensitive national secrets. Inspired by real events, Salakaar also chronicles the journey of a seasoned spymaster whose strategic decisions play a crucial role in averting major threats to national security. Blending mystery, action, and quiet heroism, the series presents a layered narrative of resilience and duty. Streaming on JioHotstar starting August 15.
Alok Jain, from JioStar, expressed, “At JioHotstar, we are committed to creating an entertainment ecosystem that reflects the evolving preferences of India’s diverse audience, and Salakaar embodies that perfectly. We are proud to present a story that is both emotionally resonant and cinematically ambitious. We continue to support narratives that challenge conventions while remaining grounded in powerful human truths. I am grateful to the entire team for dedicating their years to bring this to audiences this Independence Day.”
Faruk Kabir, director and co-writer, added, “Salakaar is not just a spy thriller; it’s a deeply emotional narrative about fractured legacies and the cost of silence. We explore espionage not merely as a mission but as a burden—a debt that is passed from one generation to the next.”
Sunjoy Waddhwa, Chairman & Managing Director of Sphereorigins, remarked, “With Salakaar, we aimed to push the boundaries of spy thrillers in India. This story is layered, relevant, and emotionally impactful. We’ve found excellent partners in JioHotstar to bring this tale to life, and we look forward to August 15 when audiences can experience Salakaar.”
Mahir Khan, Proprietor of Mahir Films, shared, “At Mahir Films, we are excited to share Salakaar with the world. It is a phenomenal story filled with courage, thrill, vulnerability, and much more. Alongside Sphereorigins and JioHotstar, we aim to deliver an all-consuming spy thriller to viewers.”
The launch of Salakaar adds to JioHotstar’s expanding lineup of compelling original content, following the success of titles like Criminal Justice: A Family Matter and the recent announcement of Special Ops Season 2.
