The trailer of the show, which is adapted from the popular British series Press, presents a tale of the clash of these two disparate worlds, conflicting ideologies and their incompatible ethics. It shows what goes behind the business of daily news as the journalists try to balance work, ambition and integrity, amid the never-ending pressure to deliver 'Breaking News'.
The show also stars Taaruk Raina, Indraneil Sengupta, Faisal Rashid, Kiran Kumar, Aakash Khurana and Sanjeeta Bhattacharya in pivotal roles.
The series revolves around two warring news networks, Awaaz Bharati is an ethical and a credible news channel, headed by Editor-In-Chief Amina Qureshi (played by Sonali Bendre) and Josh 24/7 News, headed by Editor-In-Chief Dipankar Sanyal (played by Jaideep Ahlawat), is India's No.1 news channel as per TRPs but believes in sensationalism and invasive journalism.
