Hyderabad: Twenty-five years ago, New Delhi witnessed one of the most painful tragedies. A fire in a cinema that took 59 lives and etched itself in the minds of the country. Based on the book written by Neelam and Shekhar Krishnamoorthy, who lost their children to the fire, Netflix will soon begin streaming ‘Trial By Fire’.
