The series is reported to be set against the backdrop of the Indian subcontinent, which tells the story of an expelled spy Kabir Anand played by Emraan Hashmi, who is recalled from his new life as a Shakespeare professor to save his country and former love. The series is based on Bilal Siddiqi’s bestselling 2015 book of the same name.
Netflix has shared the story plot of the series in a statement saying, “A combination of combat skills, intellectual background and personal circumstances propel (him) to avenge the past and face his deadliest enemies in a race against time”. It was last year in November when Netflix announced the plans to make the adapted series.
