Chidiya Udd Season 1 (2025) presents a raw and immersive portrayal of survival against overwhelming odds in Mumbai’s notorious Kamathipura red-light district. Directed by Ravi Jadhav and adapted from Aabid Surti’s novel Cages, the eight-episode series (approximately 35 minutes per episode) centers on Seher (Bhoomika Meena), a young woman forced to flee her village in Rajasthan and confront the brutal realities of city life.

Seher arrives in Mumbai seeking safety, only to be ensnared by rival underworld factions and the predatory dynamics of prostitution. Central to the narrative is Qadir Khan (Jackie Shroff), a commanding figure whose ambiguous morality—part protector, part oppressor—captures the moral chaos of Kamathipura. Supported by a strong ensemble including Sikandar Kher, Madhur Mittal, and Mayur More, the characters are vividly drawn with conflicting loyalties and survival strategies.
