Actors Ali Fazal and Sonali Bendre will soon be seen together in a web series helmed by Paatal Lok season 1 director Prosit Roy. The show might be based on the infamous Ranga-Billa murder case of 1978, although this has not been confirmed by the makers.

A source close to the production shared, “The team has been researching the case in detail for months now. The show which has commenced shoot in the capital will focus on the events as they unfolded following the murder case. It’s being treated with sensitivity and aims to show how deeply the case affected Delhi. The shoot is currently on in various parts of the city.”

The case dates back to 1978 when 16-year-old Geeta Chopra and her brother, 14-year-old Sanjay, were kidnapped by Kuljeet Singh (alias Ranga Khus) and Jasbir Singh (alias Billa) in Delhi and were eventually brutally murdered. Ranga and Billa were sentenced to death for the crime.

When it comes to other projects, Ali was last seen in 2023’s Khufiya. He also has Metro…In Dino, Lahore 1947 and Thug Life in the pipeline. Sonali was recently seen in a cameo appearance in Abhishek Bachchan starrer Be Happy. She is also part of the ongoing series The Broken News.
