Listen to Story Streaming giant Netflix has officially announced The Roshans, a docu-series offering an exclusive look into the lives and legacy of one of Bollywood’s most iconic families, the Roshans. The series will delve into three generations of the Roshan family, whose contributions to Indian cinema have left an indelible mark. At the centre of the narrative is the late Roshan Lal Nagrath, fondly known as Roshan Saab, a celebrated composer who laid the foundation of the "family’s artistic dynasty".
The docu-series also promises to highlight the contributions of his descendants — filmmaker Rakesh Roshan, composer Rajesh Roshan, and actor Hrithik Roshan. "A profound journey through legacy and love with the family that brought music, magic, and unforgettable moments to Hindi cinema. Watch The Roshans, coming soon, only on Netflix (sic)," announced Netflix.
