The series is described by Apple as a “hopeful cinematic love story coupled with a thrilling epic adventure that follows one man’s journey to redemption through a country that changes his life.” It is based on Gregory David Roberts’ 2003 novel of the same name.

Shantaram follows the story of a fugitive named Lin Ford, who is played by Charlie Hunnam. Hunnam is known for his roles in “Sons of Anarchy” and “Pacific Rim.” Lin, alone in 1980s Bombay, sets out on a journey that leads to him becoming entangled with gangsters and criminals.

Alone in an unfamiliar city, Lin struggles to avoid the trouble he’s running from in this new place. After falling for an enigmatic and intriguing woman named Karla, Lin must choose between freedom or love and the complications that come with it.
