It's a story of the human spirit that needed to be told, to remind people of the power of resilience in the face of adversity. I am truly humbled and honoured to helm this series. To be able to execute my passion project under the able guidance of YRF Entertainment; to be able to work with talent like R Madhavan, Kay Kay Menon, Juhi Chawla, Raghubir Yadav, Divyendu, Babil and so many others in my very first outing as a director and for this series to reach the global audience through Netflix is truly a dream come true.”

Monika Shergill, VP, Content, Netflix India said, “This year has been a fantastic year for Netflix's dramas. Audiences have loved the variety of series across all genres that we have released, and I am excited to end this year on a high note with the launch of the truly exceptional miniseries The Railway Men.

The series captures an inspiring story with bravery and compassion at its heart. I'm confident that this moving story will appeal to our audiences and stay with them just like it stayed with me.”
