Netflix announced its upcoming true crime docuseries – ‘The Indrani Mukerjea Story: Buried Truth’ on Monday. Slated to premiere on February 23, it will see prime accused Indrani Mukerjea break her silence on the high-profile Sheena Bora murder case.
The series promises to uncover complex family dynamics and motivations behind the shocking death of Bora in 2012. Her sister Indrani Mukerjea and husband Peter Mukerjea were arrested in 2015 for her murder.
Through interviews with Mukerjea, her children Vidhie and Mikhail Bora, journalists, and lawyers, the documentary examines the sensational scandal that gripped India. It is produced by Shaana Levy and Uraaz Bahl under MakeMake Productions and is made in collaboration with India Today Group.
The poster only shows half of Indrani’s face, indicating the ‘buried truths’ to be further revealed in the series. This marks Netflix’s second Indian true crime docuseries in recent months after January’s ‘Curry and Cyanide’ on alleged serial killer Jolly Joseph.
With rare access to Indrani Mukerjea, the main accused out on bail presently, ‘Buried Truth’ promises explosive revelations on her side of the story. The bizarre twists and turns around the Bora murder case, also linked to INX media, have kept Indian audiences hooked since 2015.
Now Netflix will stream the definitive docuseries on the mysterious tragedy that exposed dark family secrets and chilled the public for its brutality. Early reports suggest Indrani may claim her innocence or make shocking confessions that challenge the current narrative. Viewers await answers when Buried Truth premieres this February 23.
