The highly rated Variety magazine has listed R Madhavan’s Breathe as one of the best shows to binge watch across the world. This is a huge achievement for the team that made it happen. The core squad of this successful show comprises Vikram Malhotra and team Abundantia, Mayank Sharma – it’s debutant director, and the silent support behind this dream from day one – Akashdeep Sabir. It was during the making of Akasdeep’s Santa Banta, that Mayank narrated a one line idea that eventually became Breathe. Once developed as a feature, it was Vikram who saw its potential as a long format show and asked Akashdeep to convince Mayank. Once that bridge was crossed, Amazon came on board and the rest is there for all to see. There is a season two in the pipeline and the makers hope that it sees humungous success too.

Breathe is a gritty psychological drama that follows the lives of ordinary people faced with extraordinary circumstances. Kabir Sawant (Amit Sadh), a brilliant but unconventional officer of the Mumbai Crime Branch, puts together the pieces of seemingly unconnected deaths of organ donors that lead to an unlikely suspect – the affable Danny Mascarenhas (R. Madhavan).  As Danny faces the difficult choice between morality and the slim possibility of saving his dying son’s life, Kabir will not stop till he cracks the case and delivers justice.
