Star Plus replaces India’s Raw Star with Private Investigator

2 December 2014

Premiering on December 7, the detective drama series will be telecast every Sunday at 8 PM

Star Plus is all set to launch a detective drama series ‘Private Investigator’ in place of its recently concluded singing realty show ‘India’s Raw Stars’. Private Investigator is a thrilling journey with Raffe Roy Chaudhary who with his extraordinary observation skills goes about solving crimes that baffle even the police, defying the age old belief of age brings wisdom. Premiering on December 7, the show will be telecast every Sunday at 8 PM.
Produced by Freemantle media and conceptualised by Sourabh Ratnu, Private Investigator is jointly directed by Sourabh Ratnu and Anusha Rizvi. Sandhya Mridul & Vrajesh Hirjee will be seen making a comeback on Indian television through Private Investigator.
Raffe Roy Chaudhary (Mrinal Dutt), a 21-year-old criminology student, fashions himself as a PI as a result of his solitary upbringing and the unanswered questions about his past. Equipped with nothing but his unique observational skills and superior intellect, he teams up with the comical and simple-minded inspector Tiwari (Vrajesh Hirjee) to solve crimes with no apparent motives or suspects. Raffe steps out in the dark & dangerous world of crime as the youngest private investigator solving one new case every week.
Unlike the run of the mill detectives on Indian Television who are loud and boisterous, Raffe is calm and reserved. He is emotionally attached to his mother, Anita Roy Chaudhary (Sandhya Mridul) who has kept him away from a dark secret about his past that could change his life forever. During this journey of unearthing mysteries, we will see the young Raffe becoming smarter, overcoming fears and understanding the world around him better.

Is the Media in trouble? Mumbai Press Club holds discussion on subject

Uday Shankar, Star India CEO said, “Just because the media has become capital-intensive, doesn’t mean that it has to compromise on your integrity. Every business has to have a value system, and the editor needs to be sensitive to that. Journalists need to wake up to the economic reality, and it can’t be denied. On the other hand, those who recognise that are willing to swing to the other extreme and do anything. That also is neither healthy nor sustainable.”
