Mumbai, May 31 (UNI) Punjabi cinema's beloved superstar Diljit Dosanjh's film 'Detective Sherdil' is set to charm audiences. It is slated for a digital premiere on ZEE5 on June 20.
In this genre-blending comedy thriller, Dosanjh plays a peculiar private investigator entangled in an unusual case, bringing his trademark charm to the character.
The film, which marks the directorial debut of Ravi Chhabria, was filmed against the scenic backdrop of Budapest. Along with Diljit Dosanjh, brilliant actors like Diana Penty, Boman Irani, Chunky Pandey, Ratna Pathak Shah, Banita Sandhu and Sumeet Vyas too will be seen in the film.
The screenplay has been co-written by Ali Abbas Zafar, Sagar Bajaj and Ravi Chhabria, with Zafar also serving as producer under his eponymous banner.
Producer Zafar added: “Diljit and I have previously worked on ‘Jogi.’ After wrapping that film, I was sure we must work together again. He is one of the biggest stars we have, and now, as we bring ‘Detective Sherdil’ to audiences on ZEE5, I still can’t believe we’ve wrapped up our second collaboration. Our film will charm you with comedy, and thrill you with mystery, it’s an out and out family watch.”
Producer Himanshu Mehra echoed those sentiments, noting Dosanjh’s range as a performer. “There are very few stars who have the versatility to pull off humour with the same ease as they handle suspense. Diljit is one such star actor,” Mehra said. “I’m very excited to bring families all over together for this thrilling ride on ZEE5.”
