Mumbai, 20th November 2025: Nearly two decades after the Nithari killings sent shockwaves across the nation, Warner Bros. Discovery and Trinetra return to the scene of the crime with Nithari: Truth, Lies & Murder. Reignited by the November 11th, Supreme Court verdict overturning Surinder Koli’s last remaining conviction, the gripping three-hour investigative docuseries delves deep into one of India’s most chilling real-life crimes.
Nithari: Truth, Lies & Murder features Moninder Singh Pandher on camera, offering, for the first time, his version of events. Following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Surinder Koli’s final conviction, makes this documentary both historic and a first-of-its-kind.
Sai Abishek, Head of Factual Entertainment, Lifestyle & Kids – South Asia, Warner Bros. Discovery, said, “At Warner Bros. Discovery, we’ve always been drawn to stories that challenge us to look beyond the obvious — stories that linger because they reveal something profound about who we are as a society. The Nithari case is one such story: unsettling, complex, and still shrouded in unanswered questions. The recent Supreme Court decision only underscores how relevant this case remains. What makes this project truly stand out is the unprecedented access to voices like Moninder Singh Pandher, allowing us to re-examine one of India’s most confounding crime investigations through new evidence and perspective. With Nithari: Truth, Lies & Murder, our intent is to bring viewers an honest, layered exploration of a case that continues to haunt the nation.”
Premiering on discovery+ on Thursday, 20th November, the series revisits haunting questions that continue to linger. What truly unfolded in that quiet Noida neighborhood in 2006? Were the two men, once sentenced to death and now both free, the true perpetrators, or scapegoats in a far darker conspiracy?
Director of the docu-series Deepak Chaturvedi said, “Nithari: Truth, Lies & Murder is an outcome of years of meticulous research, access to previously unseen material, and conversations with people who lived through this tragedy. The recent developments and Supreme Court judgements have only made the story more urgent. This series is not about retelling horror; it’s about context, accountability, and truth. By bringing together evidence, expert insight, and lived experience, we’ve tried to separate fact from speculation and revisit the Nithari story with clarity and compassion.”
Nithari: Truth, Lies & Murder journeys through the minds of investigators, reporters, forensic experts, and the grieving families who have lived with unanswered questions for nearly 20 years. With never-before-seen footage, access to unedited police diaries and confession tapes, and Pandher’s first on-screen account, the docuseries challenges everything we thought we knew about the case.
Through a chilling reconstruction of the events and an unflinching journalistic lens, it turns the spotlight back on the systemic failures that allowed horror to hide in plain sight, exposing a story of power, apathy, and truth buried beneath official narratives.
Nithari: Truth, Lies & Murder is a forensic, emotional, and psychological deep dive into the mystery that continues to haunt India’s collective memory, an unforgettable examination of truth versus power, justice versus convenience, and the shadows that remain when closure is out of reach.
