Pratik Gandhi is back with another compelling web show, and this time he steps into the shoes of a spy in Saare Jahan Se Accha. The makers unveiled the series’ trailer on Monday, featuring Pratik as Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) agent Vishnu Shankar, who undertakes a perilous mission deep inside enemy territory: Pakistan.
The trailer opens with visuals of Rajat Kapoor, who plays Vishnu’s boss, warning him about the mission and emphasizing that fear is essential, as it keeps him alert. Soon, Vishnu and his newlywed wife, played by Tillotama Shome, are seen landing in Pakistan. Vishnu is tasked with locating Pakistan’s nuclear facility and sabotaging their operations at any cost, all while living undercover behind enemy lines. Failure is not an option for Vishnu, as Rajat Kapoor states in the trailer, “Your defeat will be the country’s defeat.” He also warns that the next war the two countries fight won’t only be a World War, it will be the last World War.
Saare Jahan Se Accha is set in the volatile 1970s, when India’s R&AW and Pakistan’s ISI were engaged in a deadly game of strategy and espionage. The trailer highlights Vishnu’s attempts to outwit ISI agent Murtaza Mallik, portrayed by Sunny Hinduja, to complete his mission. The trailer also features Suhail Nayyar, Kritika Kamra, and Anup Soni in pivotal roles.
Speaking about his role, Pratik Gandhi said, “There’s no room for error in Vishnu’s world. Every move is calculated, every emotion buried. What drew me in was the intensity beneath the stillness and the emotional toll of being invisible, yet fighting for India. I’m thrilled audiences can finally step into that world with this trailer.”
Sunny Hinduja also spoke about his menacing character and said, “Murtaza is highly disciplined, dangerous & his only mission is to serve his nation just like Vishu. Our face-off is less about brute strength and more about who can stay a step ahead. It’s as personal as it is strategic.”
Created by Gaurav Shukla and produced by Bombay Fables, with Bhavesh Mandalia as the creative producer, Saare Jahan Se Accha is set to premiere ahead of Independence Day on August 13.
