About Lukkhe
Lukkhe is an intense fictional musical action drama set against the pulsating backdrop of Chandigarh, where rap culture, ambition, and crime intersect. At its core, it is a gripping tale of revenge and redemption, as rival rappers MC Badnaam (King) and OG (Shivankit) are caught in a deeply personal vendetta that blurs the lines between art and animosity. It blends high-octane action, gunfights, and raw musical energy, marking an ultimately coming-of-age story shaped by pain, love, and ambition.
Nikhil Madhok, Director and Head of Originals, Prime Video, India, says, “At Prime Video, we believe in constantly raising the bar by experimenting with storytelling, whether it’s blending genres, exploring new formats, or championing unconventional narratives. Lukkhe is a strong reflection of this vision, bringing together high-octane action with pulsating rap music, while seamlessly balancing pace with emotional intensity to create a truly distinctive world. At its heart, the series is a compelling story of revenge and redemption, driven by complex characters and the choices they make. With KING and Palak Tiwari making their OTT debuts alongside a stellar ensemble cast, we are confident Lukkhe will be loved by audiences in India and across 240 countries and territories when it premieres on May 8.”
