Mumbai: Riteish Deshmukh’s debut series ‘Pill’ is based on the dark side of the pharmaceutical industry. It will stream on JioCinema on July 12.

Its trailer was released on Thursday. The over-one-minute-long trailer begins with an introduction to Riteish’s character, Prakash Chauhan, who does everything in his power to delve into the Indian pharmaceutical world.

The series details the process through which a pill reaches an individual, involving powerful pharmaceutical industrialists, corrupt doctors, medical representatives, compromised drug regulators, politicians, journalists, and whistleblowers.
