Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story series is a critically acclaimed 10-episode financial thriller streaming on and available via partners like Airtel Xstream Play Directed by Hansal Mehta

However, Scam 1992 is more than just a crime drama; it is a critique of the institutions meant to safeguard the economy. It exposes the complicity of banks, the sluggishness of regulators, and the power of political connections. While Harshad Mehta was the face of the scandal, the series suggests he was a product of a broken system that allowed—and even encouraged—such "jobbing." The role of the press, led by Sucheta Dalal (played by Shreya Dhanwanthary), serves as the necessary moral compass, illustrating the importance of investigative journalism in upholding transparency.
