What Raghav Chadha Said

About 'Shaque: Trust No One'
'Shaque: Trust No One' marks Parineeti Chopra's OTT debut. The thriller features an ensemble cast including Jennifer Winget, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Soni Razdan, Anup Soni, and Sumeet Vyas. The story centres on a mother's desperate search after her daughter goes missing, with suspense building across all seven episodes. The series began streaming on Netflix on 24 September 2025.
Parineeti on Shooting While Pregnant
Ahead of the show's release, Parineeti spoke at the trailer launch about the remarkable circumstances under which the series was filmed — she discovered she was pregnant after the shoot had already begun. She credited the show's makers — directors Sid and Rensil sir and producer Sapna — for their supportive approach during that period.
'Raghav and I always joke about this, that thank God I was pregnant on this project with these makers and not on any other film with any other makers. Because we didn't know beforehand. We found out once the shoot had already begun. And that pressure of professionalism comes into play. You know, you don't want your project to get impacted. So, like I said, it was God's saying that it was Sid, Rensil sir and Sapna who were the makers here,' she said.
Significance of the Moment
The show represents a notable career milestone for Parineeti Chopra, who transitions from big-screen films such as 'Kesari' to the OTT space at a period of significant personal change. Chadha's public endorsement has drawn attention on social media, amplifying early buzz around the series. With a strong ensemble cast and a high-concept kidnapping mystery, 'Shaque' is being positioned as one of Netflix India's major thriller offerings of the season.
