After lapping up his last series, Illegal, Akshay Oberoi is moving to the dark side with his next offering, Flesh. The ErosNow series, also starring Swara Bhasker, narrates the story of two girls caught in the web of flesh trade.

A source informs that Oberoi-s character will create intrigue. "Akshay plays a gut-wrenching character. The makers envisioned a menacing look [to go with the personality], which will be the highlight of his role." However, this is not his first attempt at a grey-shaded character. Oberoi was last seen in the negative space in Gurgaon 2017. He says, "[My role in Flesh] is totally badass."
