Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma is back with ‘Dahanam’, an action-packed story of a son avenging his father’s death in the crime thriller. The series will be streaming on MX player from April 14.
Talking about the much-anticipated show, producer Varma said, “Thrilled to announce my 1st ever web series #Dhahanam in collaboration with MX player. The story runs in a grey area between two contradictory quotes ‘An eye for an eye will only succeed in making the whole world blind’ said by Mahatma Gandhi, and ‘Revenge is the purest emotion’ as quoted in Mahabharata.”

In the trailer we can see how the murder of Sri Ramulu, a communist worker, creates a sensation in the village. Sri Ramulu’s elder son, Hari, is a rebel (Naxalite) operating from the forest in a guerrilla war with the landlords and is enraged by the news of his father’s death. He takes it upon himself to hunt down the culprit behind the murder of his father, which leads to a war between the most powerful goons in the village.
