Faruk Kabir is the director of Salakaar, which stars Naveen Kasturia, Mouni Roy, and Mukesh Rishi. Sphere Origins and Mahir Films are the producers.
Some conflicts are waged with cunning, strategy, and intelligence rather than on the battlefield! The trailer for JioHotstar’s forthcoming high-octane spy thriller, which will be released on August 8, 2025, was released today. Salakaar immerses you in a world where loyalty is money, silence is survival, and a man’s previous duty could determine a country’s fate. It is inspired by actual events. Salakaar is more than simply a title; it is a reminder of those who counsel, act, and vanish—all in the shadows—with responsibility carved in every action and deceit always present! Directed by Faruk Kabir and produced by Sphereorigins and Mahir Films, the series stars Naveen Kasturia, Mouni Roy, Mukesh Rishi, Purnendu Bhattacharya, Ashwath Bhatt, and Surya Sharma.
Salakaar explores the secret realm of intelligence, nuclear dangers, and unfinished missions in two distinct timelines: 1978 and 2025. Adhir, a deep-cover spy who previously stopped Pakistan’s nuclear aspirations and had to deal with the repercussions of that operation decades later as the National Security Advisor, is seen in the trailer as a compelling character. As time runs out and former adversaries reappear, the stage is set for a confrontation in which personal grudges clash with national responsibility.
“I’ve always thought that truth is often stranger than fiction, and the world of intelligence is a perfect example of that,” director Faruk Kabir stated. Although Salakaar draws inspiration from actual occurrences, it allows us to creatively examine the moral and emotional ramifications of that environment. It’s a tale of devotion to people, to memories, to values, and not just to a country. I was able to create a world that is tight, cinematic, and most importantly, real, thanks to JioHotstar and an amazing ensemble cast. A world of quiet bravery, invisible warfare, and the price of legacy is shown in the trailer.
“Salakaar is the kind of story that stays with you; it’s layered, intense, and deeply rooted in sacrifice,” stated Naveen Kasturia. It allowed me to enter a world that functions in the shadows, where decisions are never simple and the costs are always personal, as an actor. Writing that is both politically astute and emotionally complex is hard to come by, so I consider myself lucky to be a member of a program that effectively combines the two.
“This is one of the most emotional roles I’ve ever played,” Mouni Roy remarked. In addition to being courageous, my character is complex, conflicted, and remarkably resilient. Although she works in a dangerous field, she also considers her past and trauma when making decisions. The layered storytelling is just hinted at in the teaser, and I feel honoured to be working on a project that dares to go further. I am eagerly awaiting its JioHotstar release.
“The genius of Salakaar lies in understanding how grounded and authentic it is,” Mukesh Rishi continued. I was able to investigate power, obsession, and the idea that history never truly goes away—it only waits to reappear. I got chills when I watched the teaser because it made me realise that this is more than just a show—it’s a window into decades of unspoken conflict. Being a part of something so urgent and timely is an honour.
