India, March 1 -- Featuring an ensemble cast led by Shabana Azmi and Jyotika, Dabba Cartel is set against the bustling backdrop of Mumbai, following the lives of five middle-class women who start a dabba (tiffin) service. What seems like a simple entrepreneurial venture soon takes a dark turn as they find themselves running a covert drug empire. As their operation expands, so does the danger, with law enforcement and underworld rivals closing in. The series, directed by Hitesh Bhatia, also stars Nimisha Sajayan, Shalini Pandey, Anjali Anand, Sai Tamhankar, Jisshu Sengupta, and Lillete Dubey. Released on Friday, the show has already begun garnering attention for its gripping narrative and powerful performances.
