Varma tweeted on Twitter: "Me and Madhu Mantena team up for a web series D Company a chronicle of the Mumbai underworld.
"Starting from rise of Dawood Ibrahim in early 1980 s and initiation of D Company -- story will be till end of the tremendous gang wars that started post 93 blasts."
The "Sarkar" director said: "I have been collecting data since nearly 20 years actually from even before I made Satya and Company . Only a web series like D Company can do justice to the kind of material I have with me."
Varma in 2002 came up with "Company" a film loosely based on the Indian mafia organisation D-Company said to be run by the elusive Dawood Ibrahim.
It was the second film in the gangster trilogy and a sequel to the blockbuster "Satya".
"Company" starred Mohanlal Ajay Devgn Vivek Oberoi Manisha Koirala and Antara Mali in pivotal roles.
