Bollywood star Ajay Devgn is about to enter the world of television with the new season of a popular crime franchise, Crime Patrol, which will be dubbed Crime Patrol- Crime Ka Current Season.
The show will air tonight, August 31, and will bring new world-famous Bollywood actors and a familiar Bollywood face.
The new season will be broadcast on Sony Entertainment Television Monday to Thursday, just after Kaun Banega Crorepati. And viewers also get access to episodes on Sony LIV.
It will focus on crime cases that are affected by social change, digital interactions and the pressures of modern life.
Ajay Devgn’s Reason for Taking Up Crime Patrol
In Ajay Devgn’s case, it’s not a matter of making his television debut, it’s the fact that he wanted to be a part of the series because it’s something that people actually want to know about.
The actor’s long history of police and crime-related roles on the big screen also makes his presence on Crime Patrol so intriguing.
From Singham to Drishyam and Gangajal, Devgn has played characters in the past that are related to law enforcement, justice and crime.
And so to come from those cinematic roles to a true-crime TV format in the new season is to add a little familiarity.
The promotional material for the show also underscores the need to remain alert, rather than just scared of crime.
Devgn addresses viewers directly and explains that criminals aren’t necessarily strangers; crime sometimes comes from people you know.
A Fresh Look at Modern Crime
Crime Ka Current Season is based on real crime cases with examination of the people and things that happen in the case and the way people act in it.
Social media, changing habits and emotional pressures are expected to play a role in people and criminal situations as we go along.
The focus on contemporary issues could give the franchise a new identity when the franchise is back in the game with a new identity.
The season is not about crime as a suspense-mongering vehicle, but on awareness, caution and knowing the warning signs that might be present in everyday life.
Ajay Devgn’s arrival is an important change for the franchise too. Crime Patrol was launched in 2003 and has undergone many changes in format and hosting as well.
The franchise has also hosted presenters like Anup Soni, Divyanka Tripathi, Sonali Kulkarni and Ashutosh Rana.
With Devgn heading up the latest edition, there will be lots of expectation from TV and Bollywood viewers. Crime Patrol - Crime Ka Current Season is coming tonight, and we will be watching the actor as he does not necessarily go with his film roles.
The new season will combine crime-based storytelling with a message of vigilance, making awareness a central part of its narrative.
