Adarsh Gourav, Rajkummar Rao and Dulquer Salmaan to headline Raj & DK’s next for Netflix

Earlier, Diljit Dosanjh was set to star alongside Rao and Gourav.

Adarsh Gourav, the breakout star from The White Tiger (2021), has joined award-winning actor Rajkummar Rao on the cast of an upcoming show that filmmakers Raj & DK are set to helm for streaming media giant Netflix. The untitled series also features well-known Malayalam actor Dulquer Salmaan in a significant role.


While Gourav and Rao have already made their digital debut, Salmaan will foray into the digital space with the upcoming series. Reportedly, the actor had been on the lookout for a good subject to make his streaming debut for two years. And when the makers of this comedy-thriller series approached him, he readily agreed to come onboard. The series, reportedly, revolves around three lead characters and is said to be made on a lavish scale.

Earlier, Diljit Dosanjh was set to star alongside Rao and Gourav. However, the Good Newwz (2019) star opted out of the project citing date issues. His exit led to the entry of Salmaan in the series. The forthcoming venture will mark his fourth Hindi project after Karwaan (2018), The Zoya Factor (2019), and the yet-to-be-released Chup, helmed by R Balki.

If reports are to be believed, the series has already mounted the shooting floor in Dehradun and the team is looking at wrapping it up by March-end in a start-to-finish schedule. More details are expected to arrive soon.

Two Sinners marks Samir Zaidi’s striking directorial debut

Samir Zaidi, director of 'Two Sinners', emerges as a powerful new voice in Indian film

Indian cinema has a long tradition of discovering new storytellers in unexpected places, and one recent voice that has attracted quiet, steady attention is Samir Zaidi. His debut short film Two Sinners has been travelling across international festivals, earning strong praise for its emotional depth and moral complexity. But what makes Zaidi’s trajectory especially compelling is how organically it has unfolded — grounded not in film school training, but in lived observation, patient apprenticeships and a deep belief in the poetry of everyday life.

Zaidi’s relationship with creativity began well before he ever stepped onto a set. “As a child, I was fascinated by small, fleeting things — the way people spoke, the silences between arguments, the patterns of light on the walls,” he reflects. He didn’t yet have the vocabulary for what he was absorbing, but the instinct was already in place. At 13, he turned to poetry, sensing that the act of shaping emotions into words offered a kind of clarity he couldn’t find elsewhere. “I realised creativity wasn’t something external I had to chase; it was a way of processing the world,” he says. “Whether it was writing or filmmaking, it came from the same impulse: to make sense of what I didn’t fully understand.”
