Apoorva Lakhia, director of films like Shootout At Lokhandwala, Zanjeer, Mission Istanbul, Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost, Ek Ajnabee and recently Haseena Parkar, has now turned his back on films for the time being. The director who had assisted Ashutosh Gowariker on Lagaan is now readying a web series for Viacom 18’s web platform Voot.

“Apoorva is working on an action-drama, which is again a very different concept than the ones that are on view at the moment. Voot has very limited original content at the moment and has been dishing out the shows of Colors TV channel. This web series, however, is being pitched as a flagship show for the OTT platform and will be pushed a lot,” says a source close to the development of the project.
