THE SCAM: What’s most appealing about the financial scams in India is there impact on the Economy is not readily visible. Money is air, flows freely but a stormy wind once a while can sweep the whole lot. The scam does not mortally hurt the nation’s economy but also takes away the reputation.
With that in knowledge, what goes in the mind of the people with white-collar crimes of large magnitude is quite intriguing and the nation would admire them as a role-model until busted.

Mark the Date Feb 19, 2018. Producer of the show Mr. Sameer Nair The Scam 1992, finished this book and started a butterfly effect! Mic Drop!!

Even as the nation is rocked by the #NiravModiScam, I just finished reading ‘The SCAM’ by @suchetadalal and I really can’t get enough of it! pic.twitter.com/ydYdCMSIaI

As it goes, all famous multi-billion On-screen stories were once captured on paper by the authors. Controversial history stories anyway sell like cigarettes and Pan. What if someone was to make a web-series on Babri masjid Demolition? ah, what say?
. @suchetadalal you have a story just waiting to be adapted for the screen! I think it would make for a terrific web series. What say? https://t.co/lPIy8SfT77

So first crossing, where things took turns. Online pitching. Wish I could get an investment like that for my business !! XD
Wow @nairsameer … @Moneylifers and I were just wondering the other day what THE SCAM would look like on screen!! no mobiles. hardly any phones. no social media :-) What do you think?? https://t.co/uQMPxfBJCU

And just like that, the Jury was in on the idea, and the next thing we know! Can I just say Nair, subtle hint of Applause Entertainment is OG here?
. @suchetadalal
Two words. Applause worthy.
The whole scam reads like an Indian version of The Wolf of Wall Street and I think our younger generation needs to know about this colourful story.
So…let’s make a deal? https://t.co/02qn3uYGeY— Sameer Nair (@nairsameer) February 19, 2018
WHATT, this is all happening online and out-in-open on Twitter way back in 2018 February. Suchita and Debashis were in on the Idea, who wouldn’t be.
As one famous son-in-law would say… Are you serious? @nairsameer . Are you really serious?? :-)) …and Applause!! https://t.co/LEkVOpOweB
— Sucheta Dalal (@suchetadalal) February 19, 2018
So far so good, in a matter of minutes, it looks like a done deal.
It might all seem sudden, but trust me… @suchetadalal this is no scam😇 @applausesocial I think it’s time we get the champagne out for this D-Street drama where ‘Billions meets Spotlight!’ https://t.co/pSCAO1gKB6
— Sameer Nair (@nairsameer) February 19, 2018
Okay, well the hammer stuck the nail hard and looks like we have a deal.
Hey. That’s great. Looks like the decision has been made without consulting the first author? Anyway, I am in 😄 @suchetadalal @nairsameer @ApplauseSocial https://t.co/hogkO3oiUe
— Debashis Basu (@Moneylifers) February 19, 2018
That’s settled then 😎 thank you @suchetadalal @Moneylifers 🥂
Now let’s tell this great gripping story! @ApplauseSocial https://t.co/ahZN2xt5Au

And then there was none within a matter of minutes the deal was done and go over Twitter.
Having watched this show, I can totally root for this, Harshad Mehta has always been an intriguing personality, as a 90’s kid I remember having heard is name come up now and then. But Applause Entertainment hit a six so hard, it went out the stadium.
With the reach and popularity of the show SCAM, it is Sonyliv’s moment of what Narcos was to Netflix!!
