Detective Sherdil OTT Release Date: When and where to watch Diljit Dosanjh and Diana Penty's wholesome film
Detective Sherdil OTT Release Date: If there's one thing Diljit Dosanjh knows how to do, it's keeping audiences entertained. Be it with music, comedy, or drama, he has a knack for delivering performances that connect with viewers of all ages. And now, he's back in a brand-new avatar, playing a quirky detective in the upcoming film Detective Sherdil, which premieres on ZEE5 starting 20th June 2025.
What's the buzz about?
More than just a whodunit, Detective Sherdil blends mystery with humour and brings a fresh twist to the detective genre. Think less 'dark and gritty crime drama,' and more 'fun, witty, and full of unexpected turns' - all wrapped up in a family-friendly package. Detective Sherdil has been shot in the scenic lanes of Budapest, and while the setting may be international, the flavour is purely desi.
The plot (without spoilers)
At the heart of the film is Sherdil, played by Diljit, a detective like no other, not brooding or broody, but sharp, stylish, and always two steps ahead. He's handed a case that's anything but simple. As he dives into it, the story twists and turns, introducing a whole host of eccentric characters, clever red herrings, and LOL moments. What sets this film apart is how it doesn't take itself too seriously.
Meet the team behind Detective Sherdil
Detective Sherdil is directed by Ravi Chhabriya, marking his directorial debut. He's previously assisted Ali Abbas Zafar on big-ticket projects like Sultan, Bharat, and Tiger Zinda Hai. Ali not only returns as producer but also co-writes the film along with Sagar Bajaj and Ravi. This is Zafar's second project with Diljit after Jogi, and the chemistry between director and star seems stronger than ever.
The movie is produced by AAZ Films, Offside Entertainment, and Maurya Entertainment, with production support from Himanshu Mehra, Rohini Singh, and Manmeet Singh. Besides Diljit, the cast includes a brilliant mix of seasoned and fresh talent, including Diana Penty, Boman Irani, Chunky Panday, Ratna Pathak Shah, Banita Sandhu and Sumeet Vyas, among others.

Anees Bazmee On Diljit Dosanjh's No Entry 2 Rumoured Exit : 'I Never Give Clarification'
Last Updated: Anees Bazmee reveals Diljit Dosanjh had agreed to do No Entry 2 even before he could finish narrating the script to him and that he still holds him in high regard. A while back, reports started doing the rounds that Diljit Dosanjh has made an exit from No Entry 2 co-starring Varun Dhawan and Arjun Kapoor due to creative differences with the makers. But producer Boney Kapoor slammed these speculations and clarified, 'Yes, there are date issues, but certainly no creative differences. That is absolutely false. We are trying our best to work the dates out." But seems like Diljit couldn't clear his choc-o-bloc schedule and now the makers may finally be moving on to their next choice. Now, speaking exclusively to News18 Showsha, director Anees Bazmee says that he isn't 'upset' with Diljit's exit. In fact, this isn't the first time that he's having to work with an actor who wasn't part of the original casting decision. 'I'm just happy that the film is getting made. There's no bigger joy than that. At this point, woh hi ho raha hai jo upar waala chahta hai. I work with a lot of earnestness and I leave the rest to god. It's not like the films that I've only worked with actors who've been my first choices on the films I've done so far," he tells us. Without worrying too much about it, Anees is choosing to look at the silver lining and is waiting to take No Entry 2 on floors 'very soon'. 'I've had to work with actors who were my second and even third choices. But once these films got released, audiences felt that those actors fit the characters perfectly and nobody else could've pulled off those parts the way they did," adds the Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Welcome maker. Recalling his meeting with Diljit where the Amar Singh Chamkila actor expressed his concern over date issues, Anees shares, 'Our last meeting, which was the second time that we met, lasted for 10 minutes. We were discussing his dates because there was a bit of back and forth. He told me that he's trying to work out his dates. Boney ji was also there. Since it's a big film, everything that happens makes news. I'm used to do these things and I don't let such things bother me. Main kabhi safaiyaan nahi deta. Jo hona hai, woh hi hoga aur jo hoga, achcha hi hoga. (I never give clarifications. Whatever is meant to happen, will happen and whatever happens, will be for the best)" And this episode hasn't soured Anees' equation with Diljit, who still holds him in high regard. 'Diljit is a very honest human being and he's a very talented actor. In all my life, I've met him for just 20 minutes. The first time I met him was when I went to narrate the script to him. He didn't even listen to the full script. He told me, 'Kahaani samajh aa gayi hai. Aap picture bana rahe hai. Teen heroes hai. Comedy hai. No Entry dekh ke hum kitne hasse hai.' And he instantly agreed to do the film. He's such a simple guy," Anees remarks. First Published: June 03, 2025, 05:50 IST

Acclaimed Tamil filmmaker Vikram Sugumaran has died at the age of 47 after suffering a cardiac arrest during a return trip from Madurai to Chennai. Sources close to the director revealed that Sugumaran was travelling by bus after a work meeting in Madurai, where he had just narrated a new script to a producer. According to the sources, he suddenly experienced intense chest pain during the journey. 'He was set to return to Chennai by bus when the incident occurred,' said a source. 'He complained of pain and was taken to a nearby hospital, but doctors could not resuscitate him.' Sugumaran began his career as a writer and assistant director, gaining recognition for his work with filmmaker Balu Mahendra and later with Vetrimaaran. He made his directorial debut with 'Madha Yaanai Koottam' in 2013, a film praised for its realistic storytelling and rural backdrop. Though he directed only a handful of films, Sugumaran earned a strong reputation for his grounded narratives and honest filmmaking. His sudden passing has shocked the Tamil film industry and his fans alike. 'He was a quiet, thoughtful director who told meaningful stories,' one colleague shared. 'He had so much more to give.' The director had been working on a new project titled Therum Porum. His acclaimed project 'Madha Yaanai Koottam' can be streamed on streaming platforms Zee5 and Prime Video. Vikram Sugumaran is survived by his wife and children.
