Atul Kulkarni to host Faraar Kab Tak, which is inspired by real-life criminal cases that have been solved in India
Atul Kulkarni
Bringing real-life fugitives to the forefront, Atul Kulkarni’s new show Faraar Kab Tak is the new call of justice. The actor will host the series that is inspired by real-life crime cases. Factual information traced from real First Information Reports (FIRs) form the show’s spine. Each episode showcases the story from two perspectives — the police and criminals.
“The one thing that stood out for me is how real the show is. It has been inspired by stories that have shaken the core of the justice system, criminals who have committed some of the most heinous crimes and then disappeared off the face of the earth, to be found many years later. Being a new channel, the thought process of Ishara is different from the rest. I took up the project because I respect this unique vision,” says Kulkarni.

Indian television has seen a fair share of shows rooted in real-life crimes, be it Crime Patrol, India’s Most Wanted or Savdhaan India — Mumbai Fights Back that was hosted by Kulkarni. But the senior actor asserts that Faraar Kab Tak tells the stories responsibly without falling prey to sensationalism. “It’s not dramatised unnecessarily. It is riveting and will have you at the edge of your seat, but because of the content and not the dramatics. Secondly, the stories the channel has picked are untold and unheard of.”
The actor-turned-host, who has creatively invested in the show, hopes it will leave a strong social impact, awakening viewers to the realities of crimes. “It will make people realise the need to be alert and sense a problem in advance. Criminals don’t look a certain way or behave differently. Often, they are people among us, those we meet everyday. Crime rate has shot up and we need everyone to be abreast so that they can be safe.”
