Nana Patekar roped in to play first RAW Chief Rameshwarnath Kao

Well-known actor Nana Patekar has been roped in to play the role of India’s first RAW chief, Rameshwarnath Kao in an upcoming television series. Kao served in the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), the foreign intelligence agency of India, from its founding in 1969 to 1977.

The television series will be produced by popular Hindi film producer Firoz Nadiadwala. Confirming the news, associate producer Arjun Kumar said, “A lot of our audience today is watching American shows. The only way to change the game and get them back is to produce quality content. We have been making films on a large canvas and want to do the same for TV now. Nana is the right choice for the part because like RAW he does a lot of good work quietly. It’s thanks to these secret agents that our country is safe. We are bringing a lot of other known faces on board.”


For the uninitiated, Rameshwarnath Kao also held the position of secretary in the Cabinet Secretariat of the Government of India, and was the personal security chief and security adviser to former Prime Ministers Jawaharlal Nehru and Rajiv Gandhi.

The untitled show will revolve around RAW’s first mission, which was to liberate East Pakistan and lay the foundation of a new country called Bangladesh. The series is expected to begin production in November.

Hollywood is about to take us on a journey like never before through the lives of ‘The Beatles,’ one member at a time! Director Sam Mendes, known for films like 1917 and Skyfall, has revealed the actors who’ll step into the shoes of John, Paul, George, and Ringo in four separate biopics, all hitting theatres in April 2028.

Harris Dickinson will play John Lennon, Paul Mescal takes on Paul McCartney, Barry Keoghan becomes Ringo Starr, and Joseph Quinn transforms into George Harrison. The announcement came at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, where Mendes and the cast surprised the crowd. Instead of cramming the band’s epic story into one movie or stretching it into a series, Mendes chose a different approach: four interconnected films, each diving deep into a different Beatle’s life.
