give viewers a thrilling experience. Our goal is to make

Amazon Prime Video, closer to millions of his global fans, to recreate his
magic and offer something spectacular”.
Vikram Malhotra, CEO – Abundantia Entertainment
& Executive Producer, said, “Akshay and I have successfully
collaborated on multiple films over the last decade and his versatility in
choice of roles is unmatched. We, now, mutually felt that it was time to take
things to the next level. I am proud that he makes his digital debut with
Amazon Prime Video & Abundantia in a genre-defining, edge-of-the-seat action
drama series. Unafraid of taking risks, we are certain that he would be perfect
for the character he plays on the show and his fans would be excited to see him
back in an action packed role. This time, Akshay will take his action and
stunts to a never-seen-before level. I am equally delighted to once again work
with the wonderful team at Amazon Prime Video and take Abundantia’s
high-quality story-telling to the next level.”
Actor Akshay Kumar said, “I have 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
story-telling. 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 am working very 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. And if I were to make a
small confession here, it was my son Aarav who suggested that I make my digital
debut as that’s what the youth is hooked onto. On this medium, I want to create
something extraordinary and connect with them”.
