Hyderabad: Continuing the momentum with its successful run of original series, India’s leading streaming giant, Voot Select is all set to take the audiences on another spine-chilling journey with the launch of its suspense thriller – ‘London Files’.

Starring Arjun Rampal and Purab Kohli in prominent roles, the platform dropped the gripping trailer of the show. Packed with edge-of-the-seat drama and suspense, the six-episode series is all set to premiere on April 21 on Voot Select.

‘London Files’ is an investigative thriller series that follows homicide detective Om Singh, played by Arjun Rampal, as he takes on a missing person’s case in London city. Battling his own personal demons, Om is forced to take on the case of media mogul Amar Roy’s missing daughter.

Amar, played by Purab Kohli, is a divisive figure due to his support of a draconian anti-immigration bill. As Om starts to investigate the case, a darker mystery comes to light. One that threatens to expose buried secrets and Om’s repressed past.

Packed with edge-of-the-seat drama and suspense, ‘London Files’ also stars Gopal Datt, Sapna Pabbi, Medha Rana, Sagar Arya, and Eva Jane Willis in key roles. It is directed by Sachin Pathak and produced by Jar Pictures.

Talking about the series, lead actor Arjun Rampal said, “‘London Files’ is unlike any project I have done so far. In fact, I do believe there isn’t any project like this – both on the domestic or international platforms. It explores many issues that we face today on a day-to-day level as Om (my character) investigates a high-profile case. The character of Detective Om is unpredictable, flawed and complexed, and I must admit, portraying the character had an impact on me personally.”

Elaborating further, Rampal says, “The screenplay, editing, photography, performances, and narrative – I am sure – are going to keep the audiences captivated. It will raise questions and show you the way. I am super proud of what the whole team has achieved; it’s great to have Voot Select on-board as they see a great future in the show, and Jar Pictures for backing it. Now, I wait in anticipation for the most important part, the audience reactions.”

Purab Kohli shared, “It was fab to be back on a set with Arjun after ‘Rock On’. And Arjun really shines in this one. Though my role is a special appearance in the series, it was interesting playing a character which is quite unlike me. A media baron with secrets from his past that threaten to destroy everything he has worked hard for… and in the centre of it all is his daughter who has gone missing. Lots of grey shades to Amar Roy.”

A gripping narrative, coupled with a talented star cast, ‘London Files’ will start streaming on April 21. Watch the trailer here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CcSN2Z-IiHE/ .
