He is the man responsible for popularising underworld stories in Bollywood with cult hit 'Satya' and now Ram Gopal Varma is all set to explore the subject in a web series. The director has teamed up with producer Madhu Mantena for 'D Company'. It will explore the life of Dawood Ibrahim and his 'D Company' from its initiation to its growth as the most dreaded organisation in the entire criminal history of India.

"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," the filmmaker said in a statement.
