What to Watch on OTT Platforms in 2026

Directed by Neeraj Pandey, the series came out on Netflix in January 2026 and became the first Indian series to be in Netflix’s Top 10 Global Non-English TV chart. 
Starring Emraan Hashmi, Zoya Afroz, Amruta Khanvilkar, Sharad Kelkar, and Nandish Singh Sandhu, the 7-episode series stands out for its depiction of the challenges and dedication of customs officers (a field rarely talked about). The story explores the world of the unsung heroes of this field who work hard to prevent the smuggling of illegal and illegitimate items. It also highlights how high-stakes corruption makes the world of customs as dangerous as it is “glamorous”.
While some critics have labelled it as “old wine in a shiny new bottle,” we say this vintage wine does have some unique notes you wouldn’t want to miss if you are a connoisseur of the adrenaline rush that the action thrillers bring with their plots. With an IMDb rating of 7.1/10, it stands out among high rated web series in 2026 and is, therefore, worthy of being your next binge-watch.
