Netflix has just dropped the trailer for its upcoming crime thriller Sikandar Ka Muqaddar, directed by the acclaimed Neeraj Pandey and starring Jimmy Shergill, Avinash Tiwary, and Tamannaah Bhatia. Produced by Friday Storytellers, the film immerses viewers into the mind of a police officer ensnared in an intense investigation to solve a diamond heist, raising critical questions: are the suspects truly guilty, or is there more beneath the surface?
A Diamond Heist Sets the Plot in Motion
Set in 2008, Sikandar Ka Muqaddar unravels the aftermath of a daring diamond theft at a high-profile exhibition. Officer Jaswinder Singh, portrayed by Jimmy Shergill, zeroes in on three prime suspects—Kamini Singh (played by Tamannaah Bhatia), Sikandar Sharma (Avinash Tiwary), and Mangesh Desai (Rajiv Mehta). Driven by his instincts, or moolvriti, Singh delves deep, yet as the case progresses, his pursuit becomes less about justice and more of a personal obsession. The movie teeters on the edge, questioning the nature of guilt, innocence, and the lengths one might go to uncover the truth.
