A young Indian team led by MS Dhoni reached unprecedented heights by claiming the inaugural edition of the T20 World Cup in South Africa. The Men in Blue went into the tournament with very few expectations following the embarrassing exit from the 50-over World Cup earlier that year. However, Dhoni's men came out with flying colors, defeating bitter rivals Pakistan in the summit clash.

Taran Adarsh revealed the news on the micro-blogging platform. He stated that the documentary series is set to be released in 2023. Although the title has not been confirmed for the project, two-thirds of the shooting has already been done. He also revealed that the series is backed by UK-based producers 'One One Six Network', headed by Gaurav Bahirvani.
