The show is an edgy spy thriller as it unfolds the fate of India at a time when the country could not afford one more war and its future depended on one risky mission led by a secret agent in an enemy country.
Director Shivam Nair and Jayprad Desai said, “In India, we haven’t dabbled much in the genre of ‘Historical Fiction’. ‘Mukhbir’, set against the backdrop of the 1965 Indo-Pak war and inspired by true events tells a fictionalised story of an Indian spy whose information helped India win the war. With the limbs of spy thriller, ‘Mukhbir’ at its heart is a human drama. While the unfolding of the plot will keep the audience glued to their screens, the inherent dilemma of a man torn in between his duty and heart will move them deeply. We hope that ‘Mukhbir’ leaves an everlasting impact on viewers.”
Prakash Raj said, “‘Mukhbir’ celebrates the bravery and the sacrifices of the unsung heroes of India, the spies, and I am glad to be a part of such a remarkable project. These spies go unnoticed despite their silent but monumental work and hence, ‘Mukhbir’ is our tribute to their self-less efforts.”
Adil Hussain said, “I am especially inclined towards stories which move the viewers and inspires them to go beyond the ordinary. ‘Mukhbir’ is one such story which will appeal to every Indian across the globe. Also, it was exciting to work with the talented director duo of Shivam Nair and Jayprad Desai who have notable experience and expertise in this genre.”
