Anubhav Sinha Talks Taking Flight With Netflix’s ‘IC 814’ Hijack Drama (EXCLUSIVE)


After a 27-year hiatus from television, India's Anubhav Sinha is making his streaming series debut with Netflix's 'IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack.'

The six-episode thriller, based on the 1999 hijacking of an Indian Airlines flight, marks Sinha’s first return to long-form storytelling since his early days in television, which includes DD Metro series “Sea Hawks.” It offers a multifaceted look at the incident, showcasing the tense negotiations in Delhi’s War Room, the high-stakes diplomacy at Taliban-controlled Kandahar, and the terrifying ordeal faced by passengers and crew aboard the hijacked aircraft. From the bright, overcast Kathmandu to the foggy Amritsar and the golden hues of Dubai, each setting has a distinct look designed to convey the journey’s emotional and physical distance.
