Akshay said in a statement, “I’ve always believed in bringing innovation to my work and throughout my career, have tried to tell unique stories, work with break-through talent and be part of disruptive and high quality storytelling. Together, Abundantia and I have created some of my most memorable roles in films like ‘Baby’, ‘Airlift’ and ‘Toilet – Ek Prem Katha’ and their passion towards their films and projects is incredible. From the very concept of the show, I’ve been working closely with Vikram and his team as they create this compelling and highly intriguing story. I can’t wait to start rolling for this action adventure series that will be Amazon Original for global audiences. The digital world excited me and I am delighted to make my streaming debut with this show. On this medium, I want to create something extraordinary and connect with the youth.”
