Intelligence Bureau officer Pankaj Singha (the brilliant Abir Chatterjee) joins forces with West Bengal police for a massive international mission.

With his father facing a terminal illness, Aditya launches “Operation Zero,” a meticulous, mind-bending master plan to completely dismantle Bardhan’s multi-million-dollar empire and restore his father’s dignity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
