The audience can now be a part of this thrilling adventure. They can co-create the title of the series, directed, co-produced, and co-written by Vishal Bhardwaj, and help the titular protagonist Charlie Chopra in solving the murder mystery by watching the pilot episode, finding clues, and identifying a character to dig deeper. The show's pilot is designed to take the SonyLIV subscribers on an interactive escapade.
Talking about adapting Agatha Christie novel, Vishal Bhardwaj had stated earlier in a statement, "I grew up devouring all Agatha Christie mysterious tales. Her plots, characters and setting remain unparalleled in the genre and continue to excite storytellers even today. It has been an incredible journey collaborating with James Prichard, great-grandson of Agatha Christie, who always brought unique perspectives to our team. Sony LIV and Priti Shahani have been the perfect partners for me to adapt this thrilling and mysterious world."
