About The Show
Directed by Prosenjit Roy, Raakh is loosely inspired by the infamous 1978 Geeta and Sanjay Chopra murder case. Set in Delhi in the late 1970s, the series follows siblings Suman and Sahil Arora, whose lives take a tragic turn after they cross paths with criminals Babu and Rajjo.
Their disappearance sends shockwaves through the city and triggers an intense investigation led by Sub-Inspector Jayprakash "JP" Jatav. As the search expands across different cities, the series also captures the devastating impact of the tragedy on the victims' family.
