Described as "a highly emotional story", Raakh is set for release next year, though an exact release date is yet to be announced.
Speaking about the new show, Nikhil Madhok, director and head of originals at Prime Video India, said: "At Prime Video, we want to continue pushing the boundaries of traditional storytelling and bring nuanced narratives to our customers (per Variety).
