Farzi 2023
Farzi is an Indian Hindi-language black comedy crime thriller series. It was created, produced and directed by Raj & DK, who also co-wrote it with Sita Menon and Suman Kumar. The show features Vijay Sethupathi, Shahid Kapoor, Kay Kay Menon, Raashii Khanna and Bhuvan Arora. It follows a disillusioned artist who chooses to make counterfeit money.
The project was originally planned as a film in 2014 but became a television series by 2019. Principal photography started in Mumbai in July 2021. Additional filming occurred in Alibag, Goa, Nepal, and Jordan. Sachin–Jigar and Tanishk Bagchi composed the music, with Ketan Sodha handling the soundtrack. Farzi connects to Raj & DK's spy series The Family Man.
The eight-episode series premiered on Amazon Prime Video on 10 February 2023. Critics responded positively, and it became the most-watched Indian streaming show. By the end of February 2023, Kapoor stated that a second season would be made. At the 2023 Filmfare OTT Awards, Farzi earned 10 nominations.
In 2026, news emerged that the series had been renewed for a second season.
