Ram
Gopal's
Research
Lasted
For
20
Years!
He
told
PTI,
"My
research
on
the
subject
matter
of
'D
Company'
came
from
my
extensive
interactions
over
the
last
20
years
with
gangsters
to
encounter
cops
to
middlemen
of
the
underworld
and
also
many
film
people
who
were
involved
with
the
underworld,".
He
Further
Added
"The
series
will
showcase
the
rise
of
Dawood
from
being
just
a
small
time
hoodlum
to
how
he
overthrew
the
Pathan
gang
and
then
after
shifting
to
Dubai.
How
he
gave
it
a
glamorous
and
corporate
look
by
mixing
up
with
the
high
and
mighty
including
film
stars,".
'A
Chronicle
Of
The
Mumbai
Underworld'
Ram
Gopal
took
to
his
twitter
handle
to
make
the
official
announcement.
He
tweeted,
"Me
and
Madhu
Mantena
team
up
for
a
web
series
D
COMPANY,
a
chronicle
of
the
Mumbai
underworld
..Starting
from
rise
of
Dawood
Ibrahim
in
early
80's
and
initiation
of
D
Company,story
will
be
till
end
of
the
tremendous
gang
wars
that
started
post
93
blasts"
-
(sic)
Madhu
Manten
Said..
"Ramu
has
been
collecting
data
on
the
underworld
not
from
now
but
from
mid
90s
onwards,
even
before
he
made
'Satya'
and
'Company'
and
I
honestly
believe
that
no
one
has
his
kind
of
grip
on
this
particular
subject
matter.
The
script
has
been
locked
and
shooting
will
start
very
soon,".
