ALTBalaji and ZEE5,
known to co-create innovative content, has now launched their most-anticipated
offering — Code M this January 15, timing the show’s
launch perfectly with the occasion of Indian Army Day. After ruling the
television screen Jennifer Winget once again dons yet another challenging role,
this as Major Monica Mehra, a Military Lawyer, whose sole purpose is finding
out the truth and cracking Code M. Jennifer has been ruling the hearts of
audiences since many years now and with her digital debut has once again proved
her mettle as an actor by performing a host of serious action stunts and
delivering some heavy-duty dialogues in the series.
The web series also features a talented pool of
actors like Rajat Kapoor who is playing Colonel Suryaveer Chauhan, Commandant
of the Army Base and a family friend of Monica, he is a complete no-nonsense
person who cuts off all personal emotions while on duty. Talented actor Tanuj
Virwani, who has proved his mettle with some of his recent stints is playing
the character of Angad Sandhu, a civilian lawyer who helps Monica in cracking
the case. Donning the role of a man who is sarcastic, witty and one with a very
different sense of humour is what aptly defines him. Other actors who played
the pivotal parts in the series are Seema Biswas, Keshav Sadhna, Aalekh Kapoor,
Madhurima Roy, Gautam Ahuja and Meghana Kaushik.
Launched on Indian Army Day, Code M promises to
invoke the true spirit of patriotism in every Indian out there. Produced by
Juggernaut Productions and directed by Akshay Choubey, the story revolves
around an Indian Army lawyer, Monica Mehra, who uncovers an uncomfortable truth
while investigating the open & shut case of a militant encounter. The
incident involves the killings of an officer and two militants that further
sees the mother of the militants set herself ablaze. Out to find what really
happened, Monica sets out on a path to discover the truth which leads to a
twist in the tale as the young woman decides to side with justice and
investigate deeper to uncover inconvenient truths about the army and army men.
On playing the role of Major Monica Mehra,
Jennifer Winget shares, “Code M is not only my first ever digital debut with
ALTBalaji but for me, it’s been an opportunity of a lifetime. Working on this
show was even more special as my very first television break too was given to
me by Ekta. Coming to my character on the show, once you get into an army
uniform, it’s a different high all together but also a huge responsibility on
your shoulders to uphold your mannerisms and stance as an officer. There is no
room for slip-ups. But with all the support from my cast and crew, I’d like to
think that I’ve successfully portrayed my Major Monica Mehra. I am excited to
hear what the audience reaction to the show and my character is.”
Speaking about the launch of the series, Rajat
Kapoor quipped, “I am really excited that to be the part of Code M and now that
it is finally released, I am looking forward to know about the audience’s
response. With each one of the teams having put in so much effort and
dedication, we hope that the show evokes feelings of patriotism in the hearts
of one and all.”
On playing the role of Angad Sandhu, Tanuj Virwani
shares, “I am extremely proud to be a part of an army-based web-series and
portray the character of Angad who’s shown as a civilian lawyer in the series.
This series has definitely taught me a lot of things which is going to help me
in my further projects. It was not an easy project to work on, but certainly
one of my most interesting ones.”
