Manoj Bajpayee Konkona Sensharma Bring Their A Game To An Outlandish Murder Mystery; Watch Trailer

The makers of the upcoming crime thriller ‘Killer Soup’ dropped the show’s trailer on Wednesday. Netflix, the streaming platform, posted the video on Instagram with the caption, “Umesh and Swathi are cooking up the most unusual crime thriller of the year – and the mysteries are on the verge of spilling over! Watch the KILLER SOUP TRAILER NOW!!"

The story follows Swathi Shetty, an aspiring cook with a dream of sharing her soup with the world. However, a single mistake sets off a series of accidents and frantic attempts to cover them up, putting her and her partner in a difficult situation.

Actor Manoj Bajpayee, who will be playing the role of Swathi’s lover Umesh, said, “For the first time in my career, I will be playing a double role, both starkly different from each other. I trusted Abhishek Chaubey’s directorial prowess, Netflix as collaborators, and a stellar cast that breathed life into characters to create a surreal pot-boiler unlike any other stemming from an accidental crime. At its heart, Killer Soup is a crime thriller that blends multiple genres, making it a delicious serving that everyone can enjoy."

Konkana Sensharma, who plays the role of Swathi Shetty, said, “Stepping into Swathi Shetty’s shoes was a unique experience for me as the character has depth, darkness and packs a lot of punch. Working on the series with long-time collaborators Netflix and Abhishek Chaubey and a talented set of actors was a delight. The trailer offers a glimpse into the quirky world we’ve created set against the background of a sleepy town. With hints of suspense peppered through the series, it makes you wonder, ‘Will she or won’t she get caught and will the soup boil over?’ I eagerly await the audience’s reaction when they watch Killer Soup."

Under the direction of Abhishek Chaubey, the series features Manoj Bajpayee, Konkona Sensharma, Nasser, Sayaji Shinde, Lal, Anbuthasan, Anula Navlekar, and Kani Kusruti in significant roles. Killer Soup, produced by Chetana Kowshik and Honey Trehan, is set to premiere on Netflix on January 11, 2024.
