The trailer of Raashii Khanna and singer-songwriter King starrer musical crime series Lukkhe was unveiled by the makers recently. Created and executive produced by Agrim Joshi and Debojit Das Purkayastha, the show also features Palak Tiwari (in her streaming debut), Lakshvir Singh Saran, Shivankit Parihar, Ayesha Raza, Nakul Roshan Sahdev, Kritika Bharadwaj and Yograj Singh in pivotal roles. It has been directed by Himank Gaur.

The trailer plunges viewers into a high-octane world, spotlighting MC Badnaam (played by King) commanding the mic, his fierce rivalry with MC OG (played by Shivankit Parihar), and the emerging love story between Lucky (played by Lakshvir Singh Saran) and Sanober (played by Palak Tiwari). The series tracks Badnaam as he manufactures a drug called “demon” which he also supplies during his concerts. On his tail is Raashii Khanna’s cop Gurbaani and in the mix is also MC OG who wants to contain his popularity.

Talking about her character Raashii said, “Playing Gurbani in Lukkhe was a really intense and fulfilling experience. What I found most interesting was how her strength comes from something deeply personal, which shapes every decision she makes. It was about finding that balance between vulnerability and grit.”

King, who makes his acting debut with the series, shared, “Stepping into Lukkhe as MC Badnaam has been a defining moment for me, as it marks my debut as an actor and my first experience in long-format storytelling. What drew me in was how real his hunger and need to be heard felt. It’s something I connect with as an artist. Bringing music into his journey made the experience even more personal.”

Produced by Vipul D. Shah and Rajesh Bahl under the banner of Optimystix Entertainment and White Guerrilla LLP, the show will start streaming on Prime Video from May 8.
