New Delhi: Directed by Sajit Warrior, \u2018Chakravyuh \u2013 An Inspector Virkar Crime Thriller\u2019 is an eight-episodic present-day story of an angry cop with his own brand of justice, who stumbles upon a case of a ghastly murder.<\/p>\n
In the process of his investigation, Inspector Virkar comes across a group of tech-savvy miscreants who use the internet for blackmail and other illegal activity. With the help of an informant, a hacker, and a student counselor, Inspector Virkar is focused on finding the missing link between both these cases.<\/p>\n
The trailer of the show has received a great response with viewers raving about how this fast-paced series touches upon the concept of the dark web and how social networking sites victimize young students.<\/p>\n
But besides the storyline and the eye candy that is Prateik Babbar, the series also boasts of an incredible star cast, including Ruhi Singh, Simran Kaur Mundi, Ashish Vidyarthi, Shiv Pandit, Gopal Datt, and the talented and hugely missed late Asif Basra.<\/p>\n
Prateik Babbar will be seen in an eccentric cop avatar as \u2018Inspector Virkar\u2019 who is on a mission to unmask a ruthless blackmailer in a race against time while Asif Basra will be seen portraying the character of an Assistant Commissioner of Police, marking this series as one of the last projects for him.<\/p>\n
Simran Kaur Mundi is seen as a counselor in the show and plays Prateik Babbar\u2019s love interest. Speaking about why she said yes to this role, Simran Kaur Mundi says, \u201cI think I was sold the moment I started reading the script. The narrative has so many twists and turns, with the blackmailer always staying one step ahead that even whilst reading it – I was engrossed and super invested in Virkar and his fight. Also, it’s been an amazing journey and collaborating with this cast and crew.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ruhi Singh plays the role of a college student stuck in the world of the dark web and its illegal activities. Talking about how she landed the part in the series, she says, \u201cI like to explore different types of roles and Chakravyuh gave me the perfect opportunity. In this web series, I play a girl who is suddenly faced with the horrors of the dark web and is desperately trying to fight her way out of it. She experiences a lot of hardship, frustration, and emotional turmoil along her journey \u2014 seldom does an actor get the chance to play such a layered role. The show also brings to light a subject that is very real but isn’t shown or spoken about enough. I think \u2018Chakravyuh – An Inspector Virkar Crime Thriller\u2019 is an important show to be made in today’s time.”<\/p>\n
