P.O.W. - Bandi Yuddh Ke is an Indian political thriller television finite series developed by Nikkhil Advani, and is loosely based on the Israeli drama Hatufim. The series premiered 7 November 2016 on Star Plus. The trailer of the show was released on the official page of the channel. Several Bollywood celebrities have praised the trailer. The show was premiered at MAMI film fest followed by a talk with Gideon Raff, who developed Hatufim and served as a consultant for this series.
After seventeen years in captivity, two soldiers, who seem to share a dark secret, return to their families. The two families try to pick up where they left off, while a government agent tries to expose their dark secret. Meanwhile the POWs try to acclimatise to the environment that they left 17 years ago. The government agent tries several methods to expose these POWs but in the end fails as they were true Patriots. No matter that they were in captivity for 17 years, their love for their nation did not die.
Star Plus approached Nikkhil Advani after watching his latest film D-Day, to direct a show based on the similar plotline on their channel. Star Plus had him watch both Hatufim and its American counterpart Homeland. Advani sought to make a show like Hatufim since he thought a show like Homeland would not suite Indian's sensibilities.
Advani decided to rope in Amrita Puri, Purab Kohli,Satyadeep Misra, Manish Chaudhary and Sandhya Mridul – the former debuting on the small screen and the latter returning on the small screen after a hiatus of two years.Sahil Salathia, Anurag sinha and Parul Gulati make a major entry post Episode 60 in the series as the further story unveils. Theater actor Abhishek Gupta plays RAW officer Santosh and Lala (Rashid Jamaal) is played by Denzil Smith in the series.
