"Ab Hoga Hisaab" Web-Series Explores Illegal Migration, Distinct from "Dunki"
Director Divyanshu Malhotra states that his new web-series "Ab Hoga Hisaab," which explores illegal migration and human trafficking, is not influenced by Rajkumar Hirani's film "Dunki." The series follows Bobby, a recently deported NRI searching for his missing brother, uncovering a trafficking ring disguised as a Canada immigration network. While acknowledging "Dunki" raised awareness about illegal immigration, Malhotra emphasizes his show focuses on the experiences of those left behind and the risks faced during migration routes between India and Canada.
