With the odds against them, Manju and Radha gear up for the toughest innings of their life. Manju has to choose between what he’s meant to be and what feels right - he’s destined for acing the game but hates cricket. Selection Day is set to on stream on Netflix on 28 December. Produced by Seven Stories Ltd and Anil Kapoor Film & Communication Network Pvt. Ltd, the series is based on the novel by Aravind Adiga of The White Tiger fame. Here’s the trailer:
Is a dream worth chasing if it isn't your own? That’s the central conflict driving the series. What happens when Manju becomes friends with his brother Radha’s greatest cricket rival? The coming-of-age series is also set to explore the influence of an overbearing cricket-fanatic father and complex human emotions like ambition, love, acceptance.
The trailer gives us a glimpse of Ratna Pathak Shah and Mahesh Manjrekar amongst other actors.
