Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The show's title 'Gaanth' means 'knot' — referring to both the hanging noose and the tangled conspiracy. Indian crime dramas rarely tackle media trials with this much venom.
Manav Vij based Gadar's physicality on real suspended cops he met in Punjab — the way they carry their badge like a wound. The hanging scenes used practical rigs with zero CGI.
