1 December 2014

~ A never seen before detective series about a college going 21 year old Private Investigator; Starring Mrinal Dutt, Sandhya Mridul, Vrajesh Hirjee and Aamir Bashir~

Mumbai, 1st December 2014: After entertaining the audiences with a variety of weekend content like India’s Raw Stars and Airlines, STAR Plus readies to launch yet another differentiated show – Private Investigator. This is a detective drama series that is bound to keep the viewers on the edge of their seat. Get ready to be a part of a thrilling journey with Raffe Roy Chaudhary who with his extraordinary observation skills goes about solving crimes that baffle even the police, defying the age old belief of age brings wisdom. Tune in to the show from 7th December, every Sunday at 8 PM.

Raffe Roy Chaudhary (Mrinal Dutt), a 21 year old criminology student, fashions himself as a Private Investigator as a result of his solitary upbringing and the unanswered questions about his past. Equipped with nothing but his unique observational skills and superior intellect, he teams up with the comical & simple-minded inspector Tiwari (Vrajesh Hirjee) to solve crimes with no apparent motives or suspects. Raffe steps out in the dark & dangerous world of crime as the youngest private investigator solving one new case every week. Unlike the run of the mill detectives on Indian Television who are loud and boisterous, Raffe is calm and reserved. He is emotionally attached to his mother, Anita Roy Chaudhary (Sandhya Mridul) who has kept him away from a dark secret about his past that could change his life forever. During this journey of unearthing mysteries, we will see the young Raffe becoming smarter, overcoming fears and understanding the world around him better.

Private Investigator is produced by Freemantle media and conceptualised by Sourabh Ratnu. The series will be jointly directed by Sourabh Ratnu and Anusha Rizvi. Sandhya Mridul & Vrajesh Hirjee will be seen making a grand comeback on Indian television through Private Investigator.
