Unravel the secrets with Lootere exclusively on Disney Plus Hotstar, starting March 22nd, 2024.

Gaurav Banerjee, Head - Content, Disney Plus Hotstar & HSM Entertainment Network, Disney Star said, `With Lootere we bring for our audience a spectacular show set in the high seas of Somalia! Collaborating with the storytelling dream team of Hansal Mehta, Jai Mehta and Shailesh R Singh has been incredible as they have brought together a survival drama that's rich and powerful.`



Producer Shailesh R Singh said, "Lootere aimed to narrate a story with a backdrop that hasn't been explored in this manner before. Set in a foreign land, we've meticulously maintained authenticity, ensuring nothing dilutes the essence of the location. Jai and Hansal Mehta's vision for Lootere was extraordinary, and my goal was to bring that vision to life ever since I first read the script. This project is a special journey in storytelling, and I'm excited for audiences to experience it on Disney Plus Hotstar.`

Showrunner Hansal Mehta said, "We've seen several airborne hijack stories but Lootere stands out for its setting in the sea and its expansive canvas - a vast ocean, an alien country, an intimidating vessel and a band of menacing pirates. With this show, we attempt to bring a story of power and greed spiralling into an international hijacking crisis and the attempts of the crew to escape it. The story is bound to take the audience on an emotional as well as a thrilling adventure. Working with Jai in his capacity as an independent director and collaborating with Disney Plus Hotstar for the first time has been nothing but a terrific experience

Director Jai Mehta said, "In developing 'Lootere,' our ambition was to redefine the traditional hijacking genre by infusing it with a unique perspective. As a filmmaker, I am aware of our role in molding perceptions through our creations. It was imperative for us to present a nuanced depiction that encompasses not only the experiences of the victims but also the human aspects of the pirates and the people of Somalia. Collaborating once again with Hansal Sir, I am convinced that 'Lootere,' just like 'Scam 1992,' will deliver an unforgettable viewing experience to audiences everywhere. I am thrilled to invite viewers to embark on this riveting journey which will be available exclusively on Disney Plus Hotstar.`

Actor Rajat Kapoor said, `Lootere has been quite a journey, both outwards and inwards. For someone like me, who has never been on a ship, to play the captain of the ship was an adventure and a delight. We were trapped in our ship by the pirates and the ship crew, which is already like a family- got even closer. Moreover, the crew making the series became a family in South Africa for a few months. Long and hard days of being in the sea- in a ship that is huge but at the same time, cramped. Lootere was this coming together of the opposites and everything came together thanks to the real captain- Jai Mehta.

Actor Vivek Gomber said, "Stepping into my role in Lootere was entirely new for me. It's a character unlike any I've played before - someone doing their best despite knowing they've chosen the wrong path. I connect with many of his qualities; he's loyal, and determined, yet vulnerable when his loved ones are at risk. A big shout out to Jai and Hansal for crafting such an emotional arc, taking me through experiences I haven't lived personally. Lootere became a deeply personal journey for me, and I hope my efforts shine through when audiences watch it on Disney Plus Hotstar, receiving it well."

Will the crew escape or will the pirates take over? Watch on Disney Plus Hotstar from March 22nd to find out.
