Netflix original ‘Scoop’, starring Karishma Tanna, Harman Baweja, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, and Prosenjit Chatterjee, is based on former journalist Jigna Vora’s book ‘Behind Bars in Byculla: My Days In Prison’. Creator and director Hansal Mehta shared anecdotes of filming the series in an IMDb Exclusive.
Speaking of the process of filming Scoop, Hansal Mehta said, “Scoop deals with a pet world of mine which is a Gujarati joint family. The aspirations that come from within that small unit. It’s an exploration into our current times through the story of Jagruti Pathak. It’s the story of Jagruti, an ambitious journalist who wants a story at any cost. It’s an exploration of ambition, of aspiration.”
“I think what we’ve done through this entire journey is to show that Jagruti, being a reporter, then becomes the reported. Good stories allow room for introspection, and I think that’s...

In every show we watch lately, regardless of the genre, there are plenty of characters that come across as gray, which means we cannot seem to decide if we like the person or not. But there are times when there are inherently good characters, and what makes them respectable is the way the person in the show is structured by the writers. Mrunmayee Lagoo, Hansal Mehta, and Mirat Trivedi gave us Imran Siddiqui through Scoop, who was the epitome of a good person. Creator and director Hansal Mehta showcased Imran in the hope that there would be people who would pick up some of the strength he showed and take the path of righteousness, but was it easy for Imran to do that?
The show begins with Imran Siddiqui being showcased as a friend and mentor to Jagruti Pathak, who has been working under him for years and has grown...

Scoop, the new Netflix India original by Hansal Mehta, has the creator talking about every newspaper office and how a woman crime reporter works in a male-dominated environment. Jagruti was one of the leading crime reporters in Mumbai, was never discriminated against based on her gender, but there were constant bitter statements being made by her male colleagues and peers from the field about her strong professional relationships with her boss Imran and the top cop Jcp Shroff. This was hard to ignore. Thankfully, the show did not just speak about the hard life of a crime reporter but also how society looks at women who are single, independent, and living off their hard-earned money. It is the 21st century, but to date, there has been no dearth of questions thrown at financially independent women.

Scoop, the brand-new Hansal Mehta limited series on Netflix, brings us many characters who are not exactly good but are not bad either. They are just human beings who make the most of the situation and allow themselves to succeed. There is also a power game that many cannot ignore in every office structure, more so amongst the police, who are forced to follow orders even if it means doing the wrong thing.
Jcp Harshvardhan Shroff, the top brass cop with Mumbai Police, is one of the main contacts for Jagruti to get enough information or confirmation on any news she is working on. They seem to have had a professional relationship for many years and she was friendly with his son as well. But Harshvardhan’s being in a position of power does not stop him from insinuating that he wants to sleep with her or probably just have...

Scoop
Hansal Mehta’s Scoop is simultaneously an expose on unethical practices in media exposes and also a savage expose on how ambitious women are treated in predominantly male-dominated professions. Crime reporting is most assuredly a mail domain, and certainly no place for a single mother. This, Jagruti Pathak( the name given to crime reporter Jigna Vora who was accused in the murder of fellow crime reporter J Dey) found out the hard way.
Hansal Mehta’s research is remarkably rigorous. He has Jigna Vora’s memoir Behind Bars In Byculla: My Days In Prison to fall back on. But Mehta doesn’t go by the book. When has he ever? The series probes deep into the wounds and failings of the Indian media , the police force and crime investigative agencies without getting judgemental.
The nearly-flawless flow of the drama is undiluted by unnecessary diversion. Even at almost eight hours,...
