The director is well-known from his earlier scam series, Scam 1992 and Scam 2003, and this newest series appears to be a potential addition to his repertoire. Although the project’s specifics and characters are being kept under wraps, the filmmaker himself will undoubtedly use it as a model for promotion.

On Twiteer, Hansal Megta wrote, “Sc3m is back! Scam 2010: The Subrata Roy Saga, coming soon on @SonyLIV #Scam2010OnSonyLIV @applausesocial @SonyLIVIntl.”

The glamorous Roy was arrested in 2014 after being implicated in a series of scandals including chit-fund manipulations and phony investors in the early 2000s. Approximately 25,000 crore rupees remain unclaimed in the hands of government officials.

Hansal Mehta added, “Scam is not just a franchise for me. It is a chronicling of our times. I’m thrilled to collaborate again with Applause and Sony LIV to bring this larger than life story alive.”
