Chitrangda Singh returns to an 'unexplored genre' with ‘Khakee: The Bengal Chapter’

The audience will see a different avatar of Chitrangda Singh in one of the most intriguing series of the year, Khakee: The Bengal Chapter. The official announcement of the project was made during Netflix’s Slate event in Mumbai. Helmed by Neeraj Pandey, the gripping crime thriller also stars Jeet, Prosenjit Chatterjee, Saswata Chatterjee, Parambrata Chattopadhyay and Pooja Chopra in key roles.

Opening up about her role, the experience of working with Neeraj Pandey and why this project feels like a homecoming, Chitrangda said, "This is the first time I’m doing a web series. It's my OTT debut, and that too on Netflix—so it's pretty huge. The fact that I get to work with Neeraj Pandey is incredible, and considering how Khakee: The Bihar Chapter became a massive success, being part of Khakee: The Bengal Chapter feels surreal."

"I haven’t done a genre like this in a long time, so it feels like going back to my first film in many ways. This story explores the murky underbelly of Calcutta’s political landscape, and the narrative is packed with intrigue. My character is deeply human, flawed, and complex—I loved playing her, and I’m thrilled to step into the OTT space finally," added Chitrangda.

Known for her impeccable acting and remarkable role choices, Chitrangda has always impressed audiences with her powerful performances. With every character she portrays, she brings strength and depth and in Khakee: The Bengal Chapter, she continues to make a lasting impression.

Apart from this, Chitrangda will also be seen in Raat Akeli Hai 2 alongside Nawazuddin Siddiqui, a sequel to the acclaimed crime thriller, as well as the upcoming comedy Housefull 5.
