Amazon Prime Video on Wednesday announced the trailer launch of its third Indian Original of 2020, the much-awaited Amazon Original Series Pataal Lok. Produced by Clean Slate Filmz, the unsettling crime-drama revolves around Inspector Hathi Ram Chaudhary, a washed-out Delhi cop who is put on an extremely high profile case. Four suspects are nabbed in the assassination attempt of a well-known journalist. The case turns out to be a devious maze where nothing is what it seems on the surface. This, in turn, leads Chaudhary down a treacherous path that leads straight to the dangerous alleys of the netherworld – ‘Paatal Lok’. Paatal Lok will be available in more than 200 countries and territories, and Prime members will be able to stream all 9 episodes, from May 15.
“Gritty and authentic stories from the heartland are appreciated by audiences across the world,” said Aparna Purohit, Head of India Originals, Amazon Prime Video India. “We are pleased to bring to our audiences a spine-chilling, compelling story in collaboration with Clean Slate Filmz. Paatal Lok is yet another step towards our goal of providing engaging local content that puts India and quintessentially Indian stories on the global map. Prime Members can expect a high-octane chase, intense emotional drama, and trailblazing performances – your next binge-watch will be here soon! ”
