Sony Entertainment Television is set to bring a fresh season of its popular crime series Crime Patrol with Crime Patrol: Crime Ka Current Season, featuring Ajay Devgn. The upcoming season is scheduled to premiere on Monday, August 31, 2026, and will air from Monday to Thursday, immediately after Kaun Banega Crorepati on Sony Entertainment Television and Sony LIV.
The new season promises to take viewers through stories inspired by crime cases while looking at the circumstances and human behaviour behind them. Ajay Devgn will play a key role in connecting these stories with the audience, addressing viewers directly and encouraging them to remain alert and cautious instead of allowing fear to take over.
The first promo sets the tone for the season by focusing on how social media and the constant need for instant validation can influence emotions and behaviour. It highlights how people today are exposed to rapidly changing reactions, where happiness, anger and other emotions can shift within seconds.
Ajay Devgn says, "Har zamaane ki apni ek wave hoti hai... Jab humare emotions bhi issi tarah scroll hone lage hain⦠ek swipe mein khushi, ek swipe mein gussa... Iss hadd tak ki insaan apna aapa hi kho de." (Every era has its own wave, when our emotions also gets
The actor's narration points towards how this constant emotional rush can sometimes push people towards extreme reactions and decisions. The promo then shifts to a crime that, as Ajay puts it, "nahi hona chahiye tha", setting up the investigation into what led to the incident.
He further adds, "Dekhte hain khulaasa... ek shocking aur dardnaak sach ka," giving viewers a glimpse of the intense and emotional stories that the season will explore.
Unlike simply presenting crime cases, Crime Patrol - Crime Ka Current Season appears to focus on the changing social environment in which such incidents take place. Through Ajay's interaction with viewers, the show aims to encourage people to look beyond the immediate shock of a crime and understand the warning signs, circumstances and choices that can lead to it.
Ajay's presence also brings a new dimension to the franchise, with the actor serving as the voice that guides viewers through these stories. His direct appeal asks audiences not to become consumed by fear because of the realities around them, but to approach everyday situations with greater awareness and caution.
With its contemporary theme, real-life-inspired stories and Ajay Devgn's narration, the new season is expected to offer a different take on the long-running crime format. Crime Patrol: Crime Ka Current Season will premiere on August 31 and air every Monday to Thursday immediately following Kaun Banega Crorepati on Sony Entertainment Television and Sony LIV.
