Her world comes crashing down when she is charged for the heinous murder of a fellow journalist, Jaideb Sen and ends up in a prison cell with those she once reported on. The others charged include a notorious sharp shooter, a nefarious bookie and the infamous, Chhota Rajan! The truth is quietly buried as she waits out a trial.

The makers of Scoop said, “Adapted from Jigna Vora’s book Behind Bars in Byculla: My Days in Prison, the series Scoop is a gripping story of what happens when someone who covers the news, becomes the news. Karishma (Tanna) helms the show, embodying a crime journalist whose life turns upside down. We can’t wait for Tudum viewers to be the first to get the Scoop.” Shikha Talsania, Tanmay Dhanania and Inayat Sood are also a part of the Netflix project.
