Netflix Unveils the Gripping Trailer for Its Highly Anticipated Espionage Thriller 'Saare Jahan Se Accha' starring Pratik Gandhi, Tillotama, Sunny Hinduja
While nations celebrate their freedom, silent wars are fought — not with weapons, but with razor-sharp minds. These unsung heroes vanish into the shadows: nameless, faceless, with no medals to show and no grand celebrations. They are intelligence officers, spies who fight battles we'll never see, so we never have to know what it costs.
Netflix's upcoming series Saare Jahan Se Accha tells the story of Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) agent Vishnu Shankar, who undertakes a perilous mission deep inside enemy territory: Pakistan. The question is, will he emerge victorious?
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
Set in the volatile 1970s, when a single move could tip the balance of power and trigger a global nuclear war, Saare Jahan Se Accha unfolds as India's R&AW and Pakistan's ISI clash in a deadly game of strategy. Vishnu must outwit ISI agent Murtaza Mallik in a race against time to prevent a major catastrophe.
Tasked with stopping a covert nuclear program before it ignites global destruction, Vishnu crosses enemy lines on a mission where failure isn't an option — and the fate of nations hangs in the balance.
Created by Gaurav Shukla and produced by Bombay Fables, with Bhavesh Mandalia as creative producer, Saare Jahan Se Accha premieres ahead of Independence Day on August 13 — a tribute to all those who serve the nation tirelessly, without recognition, rest, and regret.
Speaking about his role, Pratik Gandhi said, ' There's no room for error in Vishnu's world. Every move is calculated, every emotion buried. What drew me in was the intensity beneath the stillness and the emotional toll of being invisible, yet fighting for India. I'm thrilled audiences can finally step into that world with this trailer .'
Sunny Hinduja, who plays Vishnu's calculating adversary, added, ' This isn't a black-and-white conflict. My character Murtaza is highly disciplined, dangerous & his only mission is to serve his nation just like Vishu. Our face-off is less about brute strength and more about who can stay a step ahead. It's as personal as it is strategic.'

Netflix cancels Arnold Schwarzenegger's Fubar after just 2 seasons; real reason revealed
Screen icon Arnold Schwarzenegger's return to the small screen with the action-comedy series Fubar has fizzled out, it seems. Streaming platform Netflix has cancelled the show after just two seasons. Arnold Schwarzenegger's comedy-action series Fubar has been cancelled after just two seasons. Fubar cancelled by Netflix The Nick Santora show premiered on Netflix in 2023 and generated great viewership numbers in season 1. However, the series apparently did not get the expected momentum during its second season, which premiered on June 12 this year. Its viewership data revealed that the show had a successful start after the premiere, but the numbers fell off soon after. An analysis from What's on Netflix revealed that Fubar's viewership fell off by 76% in season 2. The show had 31 million cumulative views by end of its third week in season 1. In season 2, it dropped to just 7.3 million. The drop was considered surprising given the popularity of season 1 and Arnold Schwarzenegger's global popularity. In addition, cast member Monica Barbaro became an Oscar nominee in between the two seasons, which was further expected to boost the show. However, that did not pan out. All about Fubar Apart from Arnold and Monica, Fubar starred Milan Carter, Fortune Feimster, Travis Van Winkle, Fabiana Udenio, Aparna Brielle, Guy Burnet, Andy Buckley, Carrie-Anne Moss, Jay Baruchel, Barbara Eve Harris and Scott Thompson. The logline of the series reads, 'Luke Brunner is a veteran CIA operative who, up until recently, was on the verge of retirement. After his last mission in saving another operative, who just so happened to be his daughter, he's back and face-to-face with new villains. This one is an old flame from Luke's past who threatens to destroy the she doesn't destroy his life first.' Arnold's next work Arnold will be next seen in the action film King Fury 2. Directed by David Sandberg, the movie is a sequel to King Fury released in 2015. Sandberg will be playing the lead role in the film.

Saiyaara OTT release set for Netflix; Diwali debut on the cards
After a record-breaking run at the box office, the romantic drama Saiyaara, featuring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is now gearing up for its digital premiere on Netflix. According to a report by News18, the film — already crowned the highest-grossing love story in Indian cinema — is expected to arrive on OTT around Diwali. While an official release date has yet to be confirmed, sources suggest that Netflix and the film's producers are eyeing the festive season for its streaming debut. Originally planned to drop a few months after its theatrical release, the film's overwhelming success — grossing ₹ 478 crore globally in just over two weeks — has led to an extended cinema run. The final OTT release date will reportedly depend on how long the film continues to perform well in theatres. If everything goes as planned, Saiyaara could brighten up viewers' screens during Diwali celebrations. Directed by Mohit Suri, Saiyaara tells the story of Krish Kapoor, a troubled musician, and Vaani Batra, a reserved poet. The film explores themes of love, heartbreak, and emotional healing. ETimes rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, praising Ahaan Panday's debut performance. 'He effortlessly blends raw swagger with vulnerability,' the review noted, especially in a powerful final scene where he echoes the intensity of cricketer Virat Kohli. Aneet Padda also received positive reviews for her expressive performance, particularly in a standout scene set in a recording studio, where she reflects on the lasting impact of emotions in music as compared to fleeting trends. With steady theatre attendance and positive word-of-mouth, Saiyaara is expected to continue its strong box office run in the coming weeks. Adding to the excitement, a viral video shows Ranbir Kapoor asking paparazzi, 'Saiyaara dekhi kya?' — sending fans into a frenzy on social media. All eyes are now on Netflix's Diwali line-up, with Saiyaara poised to be one of the season's biggest streaming events.
