Shabana Azmi, who plays a powerful businesswoman with a no-nonsense attitude toward profit and loss, stands out in the teaser with her commanding presence. Meanwhile, Sai Tamhankar portrays a determined cop who is hell-bent on exposing the drug racket that the women unknowingly become a part of.

The teaser, which runs for a minute and nine seconds, also introduces the talented Gajraj Rao, who plays a pivotal role in the unfolding drama. As the women’s journey into the dangerous world of drug trafficking intensifies, the stakes rise, leading to a gripping exploration of moral dilemmas and the fight for survival.

Produced by Excel Media and Entertainment under the leadership of Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, Dabba Cartel marks an exciting new venture in the world of Netflix dramas. The series promises to captivate audiences with its intriguing premise, dynamic characters, and an exploration of the criminal underworld. Written by Vishal Menon and Bhavna Kher, it is set to premiere on Netflix on February 28.
