I cannot believe the reception all of you have given Sacred Games: Vikramaditya Motwane

However, the first person he thanked was writer Vikram Chandra for his book upon which the Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Saif Ali Khan starrer is based. “There are some unsung heroes that need to be thanked. Vikram Chandra (NO IT’S NOT @vikramchanda, not that one, sorry about the spam other Vikram) for the amazing novel, and Kelly Luegenbiehl and @ebarmack at Netflix for getting this thing started and sticking with it,” wrote Motwane.

The co-creator of Sacred Games also mentioned writers Varun Grover, Vasant Nath and Smita Singh for creating a “dynamic and energetic” writers room. Motwane thanked his brilliant cast of Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Saif Ali Khan, Radhika Apte, Pankaj Tripathi and others for their believable performances. The filmmaker gave a special shout out to his partner-in-crime Anurag Kashyap and his producer Arya Menon for their support.

Sacred Games has been receiving both brickbats and applause. The Netflix series had recently been in the news for dialogues that has allegedly insulted former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. Congress president Rahul Gandhi recently expressed his opinion on the issue as he shared a statement saying, “Bharatiya Janata Party and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh believe the freedom of expression must be policed and controlled but I feel it is a fundamental democratic right.”
