Prime Video's upcoming crime-drama Akkad Bakkad Rafu Chakkar is inspired by a real-life scam. It follows the story of two friends, Bhargav and Siddhant, who decide to run a fake bank. The 10-episode series is directed and produced by the late Raj Kaushal, and is set to release on the OTT platform on November 3, 2021.

The story starts in a small town called Hoshiargarh and snowballs into the biggest banking scam in India.

Talking about the series, co-producer Mandira Bedi said, "Raj had a crazy passion for his work and when a great idea hit him, there would be a sparkle in his eye and a new spring in his step. And he had that look in his eye and that unabating energy all through the writing and making of Akkad Bakkad. His belief and passion is what drove him and it's there for all to see in the show. It breaks my heart that he is not here with us to see his labour of love reach its natural and successful end. But I am so thankful to Prime Video for seeing the show through and putting out his last piece of work. I hope audiences enjoy it as much as he did making it."

Akkad Bakkad Rafu Chakkar is produced by Refuel Productions and is the last directorial venture of the late Raj Kaushal, known for movies like Pyaar Mein Kabhi Kabhi… (1999), Shaadi Ka Laddoo (2004), and Anthony Kaun Hai? (2006).
