In an industry currently navigating a period of crisis, the backing of debutant director Ravi Chabbriya by producers Himanshu Mehra and Ali Abbas Zafar highlights a commendable commitment to fresh talent. Chabbriya, who honed his skills assisting Ali Abbas Zafar on major projects like Sultan, Bharat, and Tiger Zinda Hai, promises a unique cinematic experience premiering on ZEE5 June 20, 2025.
Director Ravi Chabbriya adds, Directing Detective Sherdill has been an incredible journey. I’m profoundly thankful to my producers Ali Abbas Zafar and Himanshu Mehra for their unwavering belief and for giving me this opportunity. Having worked with them as an AD in the past, their trust in my vision for this film has been truly invaluable. Additionally our producers Rohini and Manmeet made this a brilliant team to work with.
Adding to this bold approach is the introduction of Arjun Tanwar, who marks his acting debut with Detective Sherdill. Arjun carries a notable lineage as the son of Rajesh Tanwar, affectionately known as Babloo, a respected Indian actor who has also made significant contributions as a cameraman.
Detective Sherdill offers a light-hearted mix of suspense, mystery, and humour, following an unusual detective on a unique case set in the scenic city of Budapest. Its release on ZEE5 adds variety to the platform’s content library. Producers Ali Abbas Zafar and Himanshu Mehra, known for their past work, bring their storytelling sensibilities to this new project.
The trailer for Detective Sherdill created an immediate stir upon its digital launch, garnering around 44 million + views in just 24 hours across all platforms and garnering a massive thumbs up from both the audience and prominent figures within the film fraternity.
