Plot Synopsis

Based on Vikram Chandra's best-selling novel of the same name, SACRED GAMES is a one-hour dark thriller series that focuses on Sartaj Singh, a seasoned and cynical Mumbai police officer, who is summoned by an anonymous tip one morning, a voice which promises him an opportunity to capture the powerful Ganesh Gaitonde, criminal overlord of the G-Company. As the stakes mount and Sartaj seeks knowledge of his prey, it becomes clear that the game the two players thought they were engaged in is in fact part of a much larger scenario, one that expands beyond their city. News of Ganesh Gaitonde creates a stir among Mumbai's VIPs, from politicians to film stars. Removed from the case, Sartaj begins his own investigation. The woman found in the bunker leads Sartaj to Gaitonde's thug, Bunty. In a flashback, Gaitonde recalls stealing a lucky charm from rival Suleiman Isa. On Friday, July 6, 2018 at 3:01am ET/12:01am PT, Netflix released all eight episodes of SACRED GAMES.
