A filmmaker named Hansal Mehta has started making a new TV show called 'Scam 2010.'

It is the third show in a series known as the Scam franchise.

The show tells the real story of a man named Subrata Roy, who built a huge company called Sahara India.

Some people said the company had broken rules, but the company always said that was not true.

The show follows how the business grew from small savings schemes and then became the subject of public scrutiny.

A new actor named Siddharth Bodke will play the main character.

The first show in the franchise was about a stockbroker named Harshad Mehta, and the second was about a stamp paper counterfeiting scam.

People will be able to watch the new show on the streaming service Sony LIV.

The makers say it is a story about ambition, influence, and what happens when someone thinks they cannot fail.

Quotes

Siddharth Bodke

Lead actor in Scam 2010

““Scam 2010 is a story about ambition, influence and the arrogance that follows both. It looks at how one of India’s largest business empires was built on belief — and what happened when that belief ran out. It tells the fascinating story of the rise of an empire and the man who mistook it for invincibility.””
