Inspired by the book written by Jigna Vora, `Behind Bars In Byculla: My Days in Prison`, Scoop is a character drama that traces the journey of Jagruti Pathak, an ambitious crime journalist. Her world comes crashing down when she is charged for the heinous murder of a fellow journalist, Jaideb Sen and ends up in a prison cell with those she once reported on. 

The others charged include a notorious sharp shooter, a nefarious bookie and the infamous, Chhota Rajan. The truth is quietly buried as she waits out a trial.

The makers of Scoop said, "Adapted from Jigna Vora`s book Behind Bars in Byculla: My Days in Prison, the series Scoop is a gripping story of what happens when someone who covers the news, becomes the news. Karishma (Tanna) helms the show, embodying a crime journalist whose life turns upside down. We can`t wait for Tudum viewers to be the first to get the Scoop."

Shikha Talsania, Tanmay Dhanania and Inayat Sood are also a part of the Netflix project.
