After redefining Indian television with landmark shows like Balika Vadhu, Saat Phere – Saloni Ka Safar, Gangaa, Saraswatichandra, Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani, and Pandya Store, veteran producer Sunjoy Waddhwa is now set to take viewers on an entirely different journey. Under his banner Sphereorigins, he has also dabbled in the digital space with compelling series like Ranneeti, Your Honor, and Dark 7 White. Now, he’s back with something truly thrilling — his latest project, Salakaar.

Rooted in real events, Salakaar is a spy thriller that blends a hard-hitting narrative with political tension and high-stakes action. The trailer — featuring Mouni Roy and Naveen Kasturia — has already sparked curiosity for its raw authenticity, striking visuals, and strong patriotic energy.

What stands out, though, is that even in a world filled with espionage, secrets, and danger, you can feel Sunjoy’s USP –  emotional complexity, layered characters, and that familiar thread of resilience that runs through much of his work.

With Salakaar, Waddhwa proves once again why he’s one of the most versatile creative minds in the industry — someone who’s unafraid to explore new terrains, while staying rooted in what he does best: telling stories that connect.

Catch Salakaar as it premieres on Jio Hotstar on August 8. It promises to keep you at the edge of your seat — and maybe, touch your heart too.
