Netflix has officially greenlit a brand-new crime comedy series titled Pushpak Vimaan, shifting tone from the director's usual dark and gritty projects into a fun, chaotic caper. The show brings together actors Jaideep Ahlawat, Abhishek Banerjee, and Barun Sobti for the main cast. Storytelling duties are handled by Sudip Sharma alongside Abhishek Banerjee, with Sharma also taking the director's chair. Production is managed by Film Squad Productions LLP, backed by producer Saurabh Malhotra.

The Plot And Vision

The narrative follows a criminal mix-up where funny moments come from weird characters and a series of events that quickly get out of hand. Speaking on the project, director Sudip Sharma shared that he wanted to try a fresh creative direction, noting that Netflix offered the ideal platform to experiment with a lighthearted genre. Netflix India Series Head Tanya Bami added that this project marks their second major partnership with the filmmaker following the success of Kohrra. Bami praised the new venture as a fast-paced and fun project that combines strong writing with unique characters. While the core team and cast are locked in, the streaming platform has not yet announced a final release date.
