The queen of Bollywood during the 90s, Raveena Tandon, is all set to make her entry into the streaming world as a tough pahadi cop, Kasturi Dogra, in Netflix’s upcoming crime thriller Aranyak. Meaning a dweller of the forest, Aranyak brings a dark and gritty tale from the midst of an eerie jungle and a mysterious town, which will leave you hooked. The show will take viewers on a ride that touches folklore, murder and a plethora of unanswered questions. Aranyak is set to release on December 10, 2021 on Netflix.
The story is about a foreign tourist disappearing in a misty town. A harried, local cop Kasturi (Raveena Tandon) joins hands with her city-bred replacement, Angad, on a big-ticket case that digs up skeletons and revives a forgotten myth of a blood-thirsty serial-killing entity in the forest.
Produced by Roy Kapur Films and Ramesh Sippy Entertainment, Aranyak is helmed by Rohan Sippy as the showrunner and is directed by Vinay Waikul. It also stars Ashutosh Rana, Meghna Malik, Zakir Hussain and Indraneil Sengupta, among others.
