Acclaimed director and showrunner Hansal Mehta is nearing the completion of his highly anticipated streaming series Scam 2010: The Subrata Roy Saga. Following the massive success of the franchise’s earlier installments, Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story and Scam 2003: The Telgi Story, the third chapter delves into the dramatic rise and tumultuous fall of controversial businessman Subrata Roy Sahara. Based on journalist Tamal Bandyopadhyay’s insightful book Sahara: The Untold Story, the upcoming web series traces how Roy built the sprawling Sahara India Pariwar conglomerate from humble beginnings into one of the largest financial empires in the country. Promising an engaging blend of corporate ambition, high-stakes legal battles, and complex financial intrigue, the series captures key moments of Roy’s life, including his time spent in jail in connection with the prolonged SEBI-Sahara investor refund case.
Popular Marathi and Hindi actor Siddharth Bodke has been cast in the central role to portray the ambitious Sahara founder and chairman Subrata Roy. The supporting cast features notable talent, with Kritika Singh playing Roy’s wife Swapna Roy, Moon Banerjee as his mother Chhabi Roy, and veteran actor Aditya Srivastava taking on a key role. Filming for the project has taken place across significant real-world locations tied to Roy’s personal and professional journey, including Lucknow—where Sahara’s corporate headquarters was located—as well as Kanpur-Bithoor, Malihabad, Noida, Delhi, Dehradun, and Gorakhpur, before entering its final shooting leg in Mumbai. Co-directed by Sumit Purohit and produced by Applause Entertainment in association with Studio Next, the series aims to deliver an authentic, grounded look at one of India’s most talked-about business narratives.
As production wraps up ahead of its planned premiere on SonyLIV, the project continues to generate substantial buzz among audiences and industry observers alike. While the series promises to offer an immersive chronicling of modern Indian financial history, it has also faced scrutiny and legal notices from the Sahara India Group, which has raised concerns over the portrayal of its late founder. Nevertheless, Hansal Mehta’s track record of turning complex real-life sagas into gripping television ensures that Scam 2010 remains one of the most eagerly awaited OTT releases on the horizon.
