Netflix Announces ‘Pushpak Vimaan’, a Crime Caper by Sudip Sharma, Starring Jaideep Ahlawat, Abhishek Banerjee and Barun Sobti

~The creator of NH10, Udta Punjab, Paatal Lok and Kohrra turns to comedy with a crime caper unlike anything in his body of work ~

Mumbai, November 12, 2026: Netflix is set to bring audiences Pushpak Vimaan , a new crime caper from creator Sudip Sharma , whose work has defined some of the most acclaimed crime dramas in Indian storytelling. The series is co-created and written by Sudip Sharma and Abhishek Banerjee .

Starring three powerhouses of the streaming world, Jaideep Ahlawat, Abhishek Banerjee and Barun Sobti , the series marks a deliberate departure from the gripping tone for which Sharma is known and ventures into comedy.

Produced by Film Squad Productions LLP , Pushpak Vimaan is a crime caper in which humour arises from an eclectic ensemble of characters and a sequence of events that escalates well beyond anyone’s control. The series reflects Netflix’s standing as the preferred destination for leading storytellers seeking to experiment with genre and explore new creative ground.

Speaking about the series, Sudip Sharma, Creator and Director , said, “With Pushpak Vimaan, I wanted to explore a very different creative space. It is a crime caper, but one in which the humour comes from the characters, their circumstances and the sheer unpredictability of the situations they find themselves in. Netflix is where I choose to experiment, and it was the natural home for a story of this nature. It provided the space to explore the genre freely and to bring this unusual ensemble of characters to life.”

Tanya Bami, Series Head, Netflix India said, “Pushpak Vimaan is a show we are very excited to announce. Firstly this is our next franchise with Sudip Sharma whose distinct style of combining a compelling story with a deep commentary on society has always found critical as well as audience love. With Pushpak Vimaan, we’re happy to champion Sudip’s creativity once again, this time with a comedy series he wrote, showran and directed and it’s an unputdownable caper. It’s one hell of a fun ride that we can’t wait for our audiences to experience.”

Pushpak Vimaan marks the second creative collaboration between Sudip Sharma and Netflix, following the success of Kohrra.
