Sacred Games

Synopsis

Sartaj Singh, a weary and honest Mumbai police inspector whose career has stalled, answers a phone call from a voice out of the past: Ganesh Gaitonde, the city’s most feared crime lord, missing and presumed dead for sixteen years. Gaitonde gives him twenty-five days to save Mumbai, then turns the call into a confession, telling the story of his rise from slum orphan to underworld king in flashbacks. Helped by intelligence officer Anjali Mathur, Sartaj races to decode the dead man’s clues while a guru’s apocalyptic plot, political corruption and Gaitonde’s own past close in from every side.
