Mumbai Diaries 26/11 [S02]

The Mumbai terror attacks of November 26-29 2008, when jihadis bombed and machine-gunned their way through the city, have inspired a welter of movies, the best-known of these in the west being Hotel Mumbai (2018), starring Dev Patel, Armie Hammer and Anupam Kher. The event has been the subject of several Hindi films but, with its scale and complexity, including the terrorists’ last stand at the captured Taj Mahal Palace hotel, has been restricted almost entirely to thrillers and action movies. On September 9, however, Amazon Prime will release Mumbai Diaries 26/11, a fast-paced drama series set largely inside the emergency room of a government hospital overwhelmed by the injured and dying.Mumbai Diaries 26/11 Season 1 Download.Mumbai Diaries 26/11 Season 1-2 Download.

The long-form possibilities of television are finally allowing an intimate look at the emotional journeys of those who were caught up in the attacks; the focus, this time, is on the first-responders and healthcare workers who struggled to cope with an unprecedented crisis. In eight episodes spanning the attacks’ first 24 hours, the show combines the storytelling techniques of two hit US shows — medical series ER and counter-terrorism thriller 24, whose events took place over one day. “I didn’t want to make a show just about terrorism,” says the show’s creator and co-director, Nikkhil Advani, over Zoom from Mumbai. “I’ve always wanted to make a medical drama like ER, Chicago Hope, Chicago Med or Code Black.” The 50-year-old is one of the founders of Emmay Entertainment, which, in addition to producing this series, has a back catalogue of successful Bollywood movies. They include this summer’s quirky spy-thriller, Bell Bottom, starring Akshay Kumar, inspired by multiple hijackings of Indian aeroplanes in the 1980s.Mumbai Diaries 26/11 Season 1 Download.
