After a big legal hassle tussle, Netflix finally released one of the most controversial docu-series, 'Bad Boy Billionaires' on its streaming service. On Monday, Netflix made three of the four episodes in the series available on its app for viewers in India. Although, the last and fourth episode focusing on Ramalinga Raju was unavailable. On Saturday, the court lifted the injunction on the show as Netflix argued that halting the show's release will 'Freezes free speech' and hurt the platform financially.

Three out of four lives of the prominent business magnates of India, include Vijay Mallya, Nirav Modi, Subrata Roy who achieved predominant success in their businesses during their lifetime before being accused of corruption. In the series, each episode was tagged with different titles, Mallya is called 'The King of Good Times', the one with Modi is aptly titled 'Diamonds aren't forever', and the one featuring Subrata Roy is called 'The world's biggest family'. Well, all three episodes were a giant showcase of their wealth, the success, and the downfall they have faced in the lifespan.

The series starts with Vijay Mallya liquor empire that made him 'the king of good times', his love for the Kingfisher brand, and how he gets offense on being called the liquor baron by the top journalist. We also hear from his son Sid Mallya that his father did what he liked and wanted in his life. Apart from him, Kiran Majumder-Shaw (a family friend) and many people who were close to him and journalists like Shobhaa De were also featured in the episode. The whole episode was about Mallya's love for the fame and the meteoric rise of his Kingfisher Empire and how eventually his dream crashes like a flying jet and becomes the defaulter of Rs. 9000 crore loan.

The second episode highlights the fugitive Indian businessman and jeweler Nirav Modi, wanted by the Interpol and the Government of India for criminal conspiracy, criminal breach of trust, cheating and dishonesty including the delivery of property, corruption, money laundering, fraud, embezzlement and breach of contract since August 2018. The whole episode reflects the tumbling down in Nirav's life when a bank employee retires and his successor unable to offer him the same stable and flexible terms to Modi

The third episode and the longest one was a tribute to the 'Sahara India Pariwar' chairman who was named among the 10 Most Powerful People of India in 2012 by India Today. In 2004, the Sahara group was termed by Time magazine as 'the second largest employer in India' after Indian Railways. The show throws light on February 26th, 2014, the Supreme Court of India ordered the detention of Roy for failing to appear before it in connection with a legal dispute with Market Regulator SEBI.

Bad Boy Billionaires: India will surely make one think, that it is so easy to pursue the fraud with a nationalized bank of Rs 9000 crore and how it was too easy for Nirav Modi to bribe a government banker for six years just to run his business. On the other side, Subrata Roy surpassed all the scamster and took it to another level, where he bypassed all banking systems and financial institutions, and went straight to the public and asked for money and fooled them drastically.

Well, 'Bad Boy Billionaires: India' is must-watch and the documentary exposes the truth and investigation on the major corruption scandals, money laundering scandals in India involving Vijay Mallya (Kingfisher Airlines), Subrata Roy (Sahara India), Nirav Modi and hope we will soon able to see Ramalinga Raju's chronicles major financial scams of Satyam Computers.
