The official synopsis of the film reads: "When her husband is framed and imprisoned for serial murders, a doting wife must perform a murder exactly like the serial killer, to prove her husband innocent." Mrs. Serial Killer is one of the ten Indian Netflix Originals announced last week. The film will be directed by Shirish Kunder and produced by his wife Farah Khan.
Recently, Netflix had also announced a horror anthology by Lust Stories directors - Anurag Kashyap, Zoya Akhtar, Dibakar Banerjee, and Karan Johar; and films across genres to be produced by Shah Rukh Khan, Sudhir Mishra, Ronnie Screwvala, Sooni Taraporevala, Atul Sabharwal, Shashanka Ghosh, and Ruchi Narain.
Kunder earlier tweeted about the film saying that he "always wanted to make a 'killer' entry into the digital world." Last year, he had announced stepping into the digital arena saying, "Very excited about the possibilities and freedom this platform offers. Just committed to my first one." Kunder is best known for his second directorial venture Joker (2012), starring Akshay Kumar, which had flopped.
