Amit Sial is being lauded for his performance in The Hunt: The Rajiv Gandhi Assassination Case. The actor, who plays the lead investigation officer on the show, believes that the series, out on SonyLIV (can be streamed via OTTplay Premium subscription), is quite important for Gen Z. While he might be right in stating that it is important for Gen Z, is he really right with his reasoning? Here's what the actor said...

Why Amit Sial feels The Hunt is important for Gen Z

During his interview with Firstpost, Amit Sial confessed he was aware of the case because he was already 16 years old when it happened. He, however, feels that might not be the case with Gen Z because they might not know about the Rajiv Gandhi Assassination Case as much. "It’s a very important series for especially Gen-Z because a lot of them would probably not know about this incident, and, I hope it’s an eye opener for them also," the actor shared.
