Detective shows and movies to stream on OTTplay before Detective Sherdil's release: Sherlock to Detective Hotyamancha
Expectations are high for actor Diljit Dosanjh's upcoming OTT release, Detective Sherdil, which is set to drop on ZEE5 available via OTTplay Premium from June 20. As you wait for the release of the film, which could introduce another iconic sleuth to Indian cinema, why not stream popular detective shows and movies that will set you in the mood to solve brain-racking puzzles. Excited for Diljit Dosanjh's Detective Sherdil? Before the movie, watch his inspiration Sherlock on OTTplay Premium You absolutely cannot miss watching Benedict Cumberbatch's Sherlock, now available on OTTplay, for he serves as one of the biggest inspirations for Detective Sherdil. Inspired by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes detective stories, the four season TV series builds intrigue with every case. Sherlock Holmes and a former army doctor, Dr. Watson, join hands to solve all kinds of mysteries thrown their way. They just have a knack for bringing justice the right way. In case you sought out comedy along with mystery, look no further than Vennela Kishore's Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes. This 2-hour movie, streaming on ETV Win, is thoroughly enjoyable even as the detective leaves on a journey to find the man behind beach murders around a coastal town. There are seven suspects, but who is the real murderer? Find out. If Sherlock Holmes is Detective Sherdil's videshi inspiration, he found the desi inspiration, too. Detective Byomkesh Bakshi, again inspired by Saradindu Bandyopadhyay's stories, is about 'Satyanweshi' (how Bakshi refers to himself), which literally translates to the truth seeker. He, too, has a companion in Ajit. The latter sticks around just for learning. In the chapter of Byomkesh Hotyamancha, Bakshi becomes a witness to a murder while attending a play at a theatre. Thus begins his journey to uncovering the spine-chilling secret about the murderer. Parambrata Chatterjee and Rudranil Ghosh team up as Bakshi and Ajit to investigate how Heena Mallick (played by Ayoshi Talukdar) dies. They take up the case after political leader Santosh Samaddar (Sumanta Mukherjee) pleads with them to look into the matter. As you can already expect, things are quite complicated even if they might not appear so. Hop on this journey for less than two hours to know the real story! Has Detective Sherdil got you intrigued to find out if you could be a detective, too? Then watch Detective 2015 and know if you have the skills it requires to be a true detective. Hosted by Chitanjeet Chakraborty, the reality show tests your detective skills. If you think you are ready, think again!

Exclusive - Father's Day 2025: Rahul Vaidya reflects on fatherhood and childhood memories; says 'Becoming a dad changed everything'
Singer Rahul Vaidya, known for his soulful voice and grounded personality, shared his heartfelt thoughts on Father's Day this year — but with a twist. Now that he has stepped into the role of a father himself, the meaning of the day has changed for him entirely. In an exclusive chat, he reflects on his own childhood memories, the values he's imbibed from his father, and how fatherhood has reshaped his perspective. Rahul believes that Father's Day was always meaningful, but the arrival of his little one has added new emotional depth. 'Father's Day was always special for me, but now that I am a father, it's become even more special to me, and I have kind of realised the importance of this day, even more than what it used to be for me,' he shares. Recalling his early years, Rahul opens up about one particularly fond memory. 'A father somehow in our society is not celebrated as much as Mother's Day, but every time my father used to take me out for badminton when I was very small — and then he would get me a soft drink after the session — that memory is very, very special for me,' he smiles. Rahul sees his father not just as a parent but as an example of how to live with humility. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo 'Most people around me say my dad is a very good human being. He's humble, straightforward, minds his own business, and remains happy in his own world. These are qualities I've really tried to learn and follow,' he shares. Like many in Indian households, Rahul experienced the quiet, reserved kind of love fathers often express. 'Till date, my father has never told me 'Well done beta, I'm proud of you.' In our culture, sometimes there's a respectful distance between fathers and children. But I know in my heart that he is very proud. In fact, I always say — the day I started earning at 17, he retired in his mind.' Becoming a dad has brought a shift in how Rahul views life. 'Even though I am a father, because my toddler is still so young, I haven't gotten that big 'Happy Father's Day' moment yet. But I feel very cute about it. It's a beautiful thought. I feel more responsible, and I look forward to every year – not just Father's Day, but fatherhood itself. It's very, very exciting.' Rahul Vaidya's take on fatherhood is deeply personal and honest — a tribute to his own father and a gentle glimpse into the father he's becoming.

Aamir Khan says 'PK' was not anti-religious; adds his sisters and daughter married Hindus while addresing 'love jihad' claims
Aamir Khan has finally spoken out about the controversy surrounding his 2014 hit film 'PK', directed by Rajkumar Hirani . PK, one of the most acclaimed satirical dramas in Bollywood, has faced criticism from certain groups, accusing the movie of being anti-religious and promoting ' love jihad '. In a recent interview with India TV, Aamir firmly stated that the film was never intended to offend any religion or faith. Aamir Khan about criticism against 'PK' 'We're not against any religion. We respect all religions and all religious people. That film just tells us to be cautious of those who exploit religion to fool the common man in order to extract money from them. You'll find people like that in every religion. That was the film's only purpose,' he said. Aamir Khan Gets Tipsy & Blackout on His 60th Birthday | Full Story Revealed Aamir also addressed one of the key points of criticism the movie received: a Hindu woman (played by Anushka Sharma ) falling in love with a Pakistani Muslim man (portrayed by the late Sushant Singh Rajput). Many interpreted this as an endorsement of 'love jihad'. Aamir Khan about his family life and interfaith marriages The 'Dangal' actor called it a humane portrayal and urged people to rise above religious divides. He believes that interfaith love and marriage should not be politicised, citing his own family and personal life as examples. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Aamir's sisters have both married Hindu men — Nikhat Khan is married to Santosh Hegde, while Farhat Khan's husband is Rajeev Dutta. His daughter, Ira Khan, recently tied the knot with Nupur Shikhare, who was born into a Hindu family. Aamir himself was married to Reena Dutta, and later to Kiran Rao. Aamir also shared the reasoning behind the names of his children — Ira Khan, Junaid Khan, and Azad Rao Khan — which are often perceived as Islamic. He clarified that it was his wives who chose the names. Reena, for instance, selected the names Junaid and Ira. 'Let me tell you, Ira is another name for (goddess) Saraswati. Have you heard of Irawati? It's just that Reena wanted to pronounce it differently,' he added. He further explained that the name was inspired by The Penguin Book of Hindu Names by Maneka Gandhi. Azad's name, he said, was chosen by Kiran Rao as a tribute to the freedom fighter and former Education Minister Maulana Azad. 'Azad isn't a Muslim name. Haven't you heard of Chandrashekhar Azad? He was also a freedom fighter. It's a neutral name,' he clarified. 'I'm very proud I'm a Muslim. I'm also proud I'm a Hindustani. Both of these statements are true,' he emphasised. Aamir Khan's work front On the work front, Aamir is gearing up for the release of 'Sitaare Zameen Par' on June 20.
