In November, mid-day had reported that Yash Raj Films, one of Bollywood’s premier studios, was gearing up to set foot in the field of digital entertainment (YRF goes OTT,  November 12). Through his web offerings, head honcho Aditya Chopra wanted to take stories rooted in India to the world, and he has remained true to his vision. For YRF Entertainment’s debut OTT series, the makers have gone back to one of the bleakest nights in Indian history — The Railway Men offers a retelling of the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy with the focus on the railway workers at Bhopal station who saved countless lives.
