Third Part of ‘Scam’ To Showcase ‘The Subrata Roy Saga’!

Following the international success of “Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story” and “Scam 2003: The Telgi Story,” filmmaker Hansal Mehta is set to unveil the third installment in his gripping “Scam” series. Titled “Scam 2010: The Subrata Roy Saga,” this highly anticipated project delves into the rise and fall of Subrata Roy, the founder of the Sahara Group.

The “Scam” series has established itself as a powerful chronicle of financial scandals that rocked India. “Scam 1992” exposed the meteoric rise and subsequent downfall of stockbroker Harshad Mehta, while “Scam 2003” explored the elaborate stamp paper counterfeiting scheme orchestrated by Abdul Karim Telgi. Both series garnered critical acclaim for their realistic portrayal of these events and their impact on the nation.

“Scam 2010” promises to continue this tradition. The series will chart the journey of Subrata Roy, a man who built the Sahara Group from humble beginnings into a vast conglomerate. However, in the early 2000s, Roy found himself embroiled in a web of controversy surrounding alleged chit-fund manipulations and fictitious investors. These accusations culminated in his arrest in 2014.

The press release for “Scam 2010” emphasizes the enduring impact of the alleged scam, highlighting that a staggering ₹25,000 crore remains unclaimed with authorities.

Hansal Mehta expresses his enthusiasm for the project, stating that the “Scam” series goes beyond mere entertainment, serving as a historical record of our times. He is excited to collaborate once again with Applause and Sony LIV to bring this “larger-than-life story alive.”

Danish Khan, representing Sony LIV, echoes this sentiment, confident that “Scam 2010” will continue the franchise’s legacy of captivating storytelling and set new benchmarks in the streaming platform’s offerings.

While the cast for “Scam 2010” remains under wraps, the announcement itself has generated considerable hype on social media. Fans eagerly await further details about this upcoming exploration of a significant financial episode in India’s recent history.
