Arjun Rampal set for digital debut with ZEE5 series Final Call

Bollywood actor Arjun Rampal, who was most recently seen in filmmaker J.P. Dutta’s war drama Paltan, is gearing up to make his digital debut.

The model-turned-actor has reportedly been signed on to headline the cast of an upcoming ZEE5 original, titled Final Call. The rest of the cast is yet to be locked, we hear.


Though nothing much is known about the series at the moment, some sources reveal it will be based on Indian author Priya Kumar’s bestseller novel I Will Go With You.

This is the first time when ZEE5 is adapting a book for its platform. It will be interesting to see if they pick up more books for adaptation in times to come.

Some reports suggest that earlier the show was called Row No. 26. However, now it is being made with the title of Final Call.

Jar Pictures has come onboard to produce the series for ZEE5.

More details are awaited.
