This story could be yours...
Sanch was everything urban India's activist community admired: a brilliant and beautiful Dalit orphan fighting for social justice with razor-sharp wit and unwavering conviction.
Then came the devastating news: Sanch had lung cancer.
The community immediately rallied around the extraordinary woman, pouring their emotions, time and money into her cause. Among them was Rheea Mukherjee, who, in the two years she had known Sanch, had come to consider her a dear friend and had recommended her cause to her own community. Then Sanch disappeared -- from the internet and the lives of those who were so deeply invested in her -- leaving Rheea to face the consequences.
A few years later, resurfacing from the devastation caused by this betrayal, Rheea was driven to dig deeper, unravelling the web of lies that had ensnared her, and confronting uncomfortable truths about social vulnerability.
Liar, Liar exposes the chilling true story of one of India's most sophisticated online scammers -- a master manipulator who weaponised guilt, privilege and genuine compassion to deceive thousands.
A nerve-wracking exploration of the human psyche, it will make you question everything you think you know about trust in the digital age.
