Everything is simple until a little girl comes in it. However, she is visible only to one person. What’s the reason? The trailer has added layers of excitement to this thriller making it much more exciting. Namit Das spills some more beans about his character which is sure to build up more excitement.

The actor says, “Nitin's character is not one amongst the friends and he has a mission for someone who is very hard working. I actually didn't really prep for the character. I believe in open communication with my Twitter, Rohan had narrated this plot to me 3-4 months before it went on floors. He told me about the character and asked to bring in more nuances to it. My understanding of Nitin's character was someone from the soil, who is grounded and I wanted to play it completely in contrast to the other characters.”

The show stars Namit Das as Nitin, Tanmay Dhanania as Rishi, Isha M Saha as Ananya, and Anindita Bose as Neha. The show is going to be released in Bengali and Hindi. This is going to be one of the most adventurous shows as the incidents will force the friends to come face to face with their past and much more. ‘Mafia' will release exclusively on ZEE5 on 10th July 2020.
