The Whistleblower’s Wife

In the shadow of COVID-19, Aditya Sen, a virologist at a government biotech institute in Bangalore, suddenly finds himself sidelined and betrayed, his career derailed. Once the lead on a controversial anti-viral project, Aditya’s probing questions have now put a target on his back. But it’s not just the project that broke him—his wife, Madhuri, has left him after a scandalous harassment accusation involving a student, Swati. When Aditya slips into a coma after a failed suicide attempt, Madhuri is forced to confront painful truths about her husband’s scientist life and their fractured relationship. As she and Swati team up, they discover a web of lies tied to a pharmaceutical giant, a laptop with a cryptic password, a suicide note, and a toxicology report that points to a sinister conspiracy. Through it all, Madhuri is haunted by the memories of the man she loved—his quirks, his passion, and his unwavering belief in the power of truth. Pitted against a power that will go to any lengths to bury the truth, Madhuri must decide how far she’s willing to go for justice—and whether she can ever forgive the man she once loved. Fast-paced, thrilling, and yet quietly poignant, The Whistleblower’s Wife is a revealing tale of the politicisation of the country’s healthcare system and the struggle of a few good people in trying to keep the truth alive.
