Filmmaker Hansal Mehta’s debut series, titled Scoop, is all set to drop on Netflix on June 2. Produced by Matchbox Shots, Season 1 of the series is inspired by real events and Jigna Vora’s book, Behind Bars in Byculla: My Days in Prison.

Created by Hansal Mehta and Mrunmayee Lagoo Waikul, the first season will track crime journalist Jagruti Pathak, played by Karishma Tanna, who in pursuit of a career-defining story is caught between the nexus of police, underworld, and media, and is charged with the murder of a fellow journalist. Written by Mrunmayee Lagoo Waikul and Mirat Trivedi, Scoop features Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Harman Baweja and Prosenjit Chatterjee.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
