A pharma tycoon is murdered and his wife's counsellor is indicted. Vikram Bhatt's upcoming web-series on MX Player, Bisaat: Khel Shatranj Ka, travels the familiar route of murder, adultery, conspiracy and vengeance, the director's signature theme. The web-series, featuring Sandeepa Dhar, Omkar Kapoor, Leena Jumani, Khalid Siddiqui and Jia Mustafa, will be streamed on MX Player from 15 April.
The trailer for the series begins with news of the murder of pharma tycoon Yash Kapoor (Khalid Siddiqui). The suspect is Dr Kiyana Verma (Dhar), who was counselling Kapoor and his wife Radhika (Leena Jumani). Kiyana is a suspect based on her personal involvement with Yash Kapoor, which seemed to go beyond the professional. With the police net closing in, and her own husband Dr Abhijit Joshi (Omkar Kapoor) now suspecting her, things are getting complicated for Kiyana.
The trailer does reveal more than necessary, stopping just short of pinning the blame on the culprit. However, the tone, theme and key points of the investigation are all clear.
Sandeepa Dhar is tasked with leading the show, with Omkar Kapoor, Leena Jumani and Khalid Siddiqui providing support.
