I am an avid fan of mystery thrillers and Poison has all the ingredients that the OTT audience is seeking for these days. With unparalleled reach that ZEE5 offers across geographies, I am confident that the series will do well.” Arbaaz Khan Freddy Daruwala said, “I’m excited to be a part of Poison since it’s a quintessential story of human desires and vulnerabilities have no limits. My character in the show (ACP Vikram) is a cop who is experienced and has observed the dark side of human behaviour in closed quarters. With increasing excitement for thriller content among viewers, I hope Poison will turn out to be their next favourite binge-watch series.” Freddy Daruwala Tanuj Virwani said, “The character I am essaying, Ranveer, is a man with a mission. He is complex and so it was challenging for me to understand the depth of my role. I have worked round the clock to get a hold of the nuances of Ranveer and ensure I get into the skin of the character. I am now looking forward to the launch of Poison. It is exciting how the digital space is evolving and I am glad to be part of this on ZEE5.” Tanuj Virwani Riya Sen said, “I am ecstatic to be part of Poison on ZEE5.
