Mumbai, September 15 - One of the leading Bollywood production houses, Yash Raj Films has had a super successful 2023 year, be it at the box office or the streamer. The studio is now gearing up for its next phase of theatrical tentpole as well as streaming titles.

It is known to everyone that YRF is working on a four-part thriller web series, titled "The Railway Men". It is about a tribute to the unsung heroes of the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy, during which, a cloud of toxic gas escaped from an American pesticide plant, in 1984, in the central Indian city of Bhopal. It killed and injured thousands of people.



YRF has now partnered with the leading streaming platform Netflix to bring the series to the screens. The studio has joined hands with the OTT giant to set up a multi-year creative partnership. "The Railway Men", starring R. Madhavan, Kay Kay Menon, Divyenndu Sharma, and emerging talent Babil Khan, is the first production from YRF Entertainment, the studio's streaming production arm.

Apart from "The Railway Men", YRF has also partnered with Netflix for its feature film "Maharaj", starring Junaid Khan, the son of Aamir Khan, and also stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Sharvari Wagh, and Shalini Pandey. "Maharaj" will be the first direct-to-digital feature film of Aditya Chopra-headed YRF.

Set in the 1800s, the film "Maharaj" is a David vs. Goliath story about how a regular man, a journalist by profession, takes on a powerful role model of society, hailed by many as a messiah for the masses. The fearless reporter uncovers a series of incidents that shake the very foundation of society.

The release dates of both the aforementioned titled will be revealed soon.
