After directing the massively popular Sony LIV show, 'Scam 1992', filmmaker Hansal Mehta is all set to helm another web series and this time, for Netflix. The project is titled 'Scoop' and it will be based on the book 'Behind The Bars In Byculla: My Days in Prison' by Jigna Vora. The plot will follow a crime journalist who is framed for the murder of a co-worker.

Mehta recently shared the poster of this upcoming show on Twitter and wrote, "Fresh off the press and soon to be streaming on Netflix, presenting you, Scoop." According to a recent report in News 18, Hansal Mehta opened up about this teamup with Netflix and said, "Great stories can only benefit from a service that can make it reach a wider set of audience, Scoop is that kind of a story and with Netflix, we will be able to take it to audiences across the globe."

He further added, "With my co-creator Mrunmayee Lagoo and producers Matchbox Shots, I am seeking to delve deep into a tale of our mediatised times and the human cost of stories that we consume on a daily basis."
