Netflix New Releases January 2024
Killer Soup
Directed by Abhishek Chaubey of 'Udta Punjab' and 'Sonchiriya' fame, the comedy crime-drama is loosely inspired by a news headline and serves up a 'tantalising blend of intrigue and dark humour'.
It follows Swathi Shetty (Konkana), an aspiring yet talentless home chef, who cooks up a bizarre plan to replace her husband, Prabhakar (Bajpayee), with her lover, Umesh (also played by Bajpayee).
But when a bumbling local inspector and amateur villains stir the pot, things don't go as planned and a recipe for chaos ensues, the official synopsis read.
Chaubey, who also serves as a co-writer and showrunner on the series, said his goal was to offer an 'exceptional' crime thriller laced with humour.
The show was announced in 2022 and was previously titled 'Soup'.
Release date: January 11.
