“The Hunt: The Rajiv Gandhi Assassination Case” unfolds as a gripping retelling of one of India’s most pivotal investigations. Directed by National Award-winner Nagesh Kukunoor and inspired by Aniruddha Mitra’s book Ninety Days, the series dives deep into the high-stakes pursuit that followed the tragic assassination.

With Amit Sial portraying the resolute investigator D.R. Karthikeyan, the drama captures the emotional and procedural intensity of the case. Premiering July 4 on Sony LIV, it promises a compelling blend of history, justice, and human resilience.

Amit Sial shared that playing such a respectful and determined figure was a great responsibility. One powerful moment shows Karthikeyan at the blast site, where only dried blood remained. The series also stars Sahil Vaid, Bhagwati Perumal, Danish Iqbal, Girish Sharma, Vidyut Garg, and others in key roles.
