Vikram Bhatt all set to start the shooting of his next web series titled Dirty Games

Murtuza Iqbal

Vikram Bhatt, who has earlier made web series like Twisted and Maaya, will start shooting for his next web series on 27th October in Mumbai, India. The series, which is titled Dirty Games, stars Sandeepa Dhar and Omkar Kapoor in lead roles. It’s an eight-episode web series and the shooting will take place with all the necessary precautions.


Vikram Bhatt is known for his films like Ghulam, Raaz franchise, 1920, and more. Recently, while talking about his experience of working on web series, the filmmaker said, "I was probably the first one to start serious fiction on the net. Maaya and Twisted are in their fourth season now and that makes me really happy. However, in these years the OTT game has changed and both the content and the competition are much more fierce. Showbiz is like a game of cricket. You need to get out there and play a scintillating knock every once in a while. Here is to another scintillating knock, knock on wood!"

Dirty Games revolves around a psychiatrist who gets caught in the middle of a murder. The series also stars Khaled Siddiqui, Samay Thakkar, Vyas Hemang, Trishaan Singh Maini, Tanvi Thakkar, Coral Bhamra, Ashwin Kaushal, and Prakash Jha. It will stream on MX Player.

Talking about his movies, Vikram Bhatt’s last film was Hacked which starred Hina Khan in the lead role. Though the film didn’t get a great response at the box office, it was appreciated when it later started streaming on an OTT platform.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
