‘Sector 36’, the upcoming crime thriller produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films and Jio Studios, has officially dropped its highly anticipated trailer. Set to premiere on Netflix on September 13, the film offers a suspenseful narrative about a police inspector’s relentless pursuit of a serial killer amidst a series of chilling child abductions in a slum community.
Directed by debutant filmmaker ‘Aditya Nimbalkar’, ‘Sector 36’ takes viewers on a gripping journey, tracing the transformation of Inspector Ram Charan Pandey (played by Deepak Dobriyal) from a complacent officer into a determined hunter when justice becomes personal. Set against the backdrop of Sector 36, the trailer sets the stage for an intense, high-stakes investigation as Ram Charan races against time to save the lives of missing children while navigating the dangers of a serial killer on the loose.
At the center of the plot is the enigmatic ‘Prem Singh’ (portrayed by Vikrant Massey), a terrifying and layered character who hides in plain sight. The dynamic between the two leads drives the tension, as Ram Charan’s pursuit of Prem evolves into a dangerous game of cat and mouse.
A Powerful Thriller Inspired by True Events
The storyline of ‘Sector 36’ is inspired by real-life events, adding an unsettling layer of realism to the already tense narrative. Through its exploration of crime, class disparity, and social neglect, the film sheds light on how evil can thrive in environments where justice is left unchecked.
Talking about his character, ‘Vikrant Massey’ shared, “Stepping into the character of Prem for this film was unlike anything I’ve done before. To convincingly play a layered and terrifying killer who could pass off as any other person has been difficult. Aditya has done a great job in creating this gritty world meticulously. This is an incredibly important film, and as storytellers, alongside Netflix and Maddock Films, we hope the audience will be able to see the need to tell stories like these.”
Massey’s portrayal of a chilling, yet unassuming killer promises to leave a lasting impact on viewers, as the trailer showcases his character’s ability to blend seamlessly into everyday life while hiding his dark and sinister side.
Meanwhile, Deepak Dobriyal, whose character is the moral compass of the story, emphasized the emotional and psychological depth of the film. “I was captivated by the ‘Sector 36’ script from the very beginning. It’s a powerful thriller that brings to light class disparity, and how crime thrives when left unchecked. Inspired by true events, my character brings an investigative urgency to an exciting film that focuses on the hunter and the hunted.”
