The trailer of Srijit Mukherji’s upcoming series Jaanbaaz Hindustan Ke was released today. The series stars Regina Cassandra, Sumeet Vyas Barun Sobti, Chandan Roy, Mita Vashisht, Deepika Amin, and Sandeep Dhabale.

As seen in the trailer, the thriller series narrates the tale of a courageous IPS officer Kavya Iyer( Regina) who battles against the militants and re-establishes the faith of the common man in law. Produced by Juggernaut Productions, the show is spread across 8 episodes and is centred around real heroes in uniform. Inspired by true events, it sheds light on the complexities officers must face in order to fulfil their duties for the country.

Talking about the series, Srijit said, “Jaanbaaz Hindustan Ke is an unfettered creation of bravery and valour of female officers. They say the police or the army is an unforgiving place for any officer, and the thought behind this show was to capture that. It is an ode to innumerable officers in the police force who have shown courage, resolve and leadership in equal measure.”

Explaining the process of getting into her character, Regina said, “Getting under the skin of Kavya was an enriching experience. From emoting the character of a tough IPS officer and getting the body language correct to play a mother and daughter was demanding but exciting. Kavya is the epitome of a warrior. Despite being a mother, a wife and a daughter, she, as an IPS officer, will go beyond her call for duty and serve her nation.”

Jaanbaaz Hindustan Ke streams on ZEE5 from January 26, in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
