Netflix India has debuted the trailer for Section 36, a dark crime thriller starring Vikrant Massey and Deepak Dobriyal. The film, inspired by true events, follows the hunt for a serial killer after several children go missing over time from a slum in North India. It is directed by debutant Aditya Nimbalkar and written by Bodhayan Roychaudhury.
In the trailer, Ram Charan Pandey (Deepak Dobriyal), a Newton-referencing police officer, is on the trail of Prem Singh (Vikrant Massey), a killer hiding in plain sight. Though the makers haven’t made their source of inspiration explicit, the events in the film bear resemblance to the 2006 Noida serial murders, also known as the Nithari killings.
