The Mumbai terror attack of 26 November 2008 was the darkest episode in the history of this vibrant city. Ten heavily armed terrorists from across the border had unleashed unspeakable death and destruction in the city, besides taking numerous citizens hostage.
ZEE5‘s upcoming original web series Chhabbis Gyarah is the story of the fightback launched by the NSG, the elite Commando force of the country, against the terrorists, in an operation titled Black Tornado Mission.
Arjan Bajwa is essaying the role of Colonel Kunal Sahota, the NSG brave heart in charge of the mission. The series is adapted from Sandeep Unnithan’s gripping novel based on the mission, called Black Tornado: The Three Sieges of Mumbai 26/11.
Recently, Arjan Bajwa shared his first look from the web series, and we must say it is quite an interesting look. Arjan has his face in profile, and a scar runs down his face, from the cheek to the neck, proving beyond doubt that the Colonel is a battle-scarred warrior of many a dangerous mission.
Chhabbis Gyarah will touch upon hitherto untold stories of those terrible three days when Maximum City was held hostage by the terrorists on a suicide mission.
The series is produced and created by Abhimanyu Singh of Contiloe Pictures and co-created and directed by Matthew Leutwyler. Besides Bajwa, the series will feature Arjun Bijlani, Vivek Dahiya, Sid Makkar and Tara Alisha Berry, among others, in pivotal roles.
