As per the makers, 'Detective Sherdil' tells the "tale of a unique detective tasked with solving a case that is far from ordinary." It was shot in Budapest.

Written by Ali Abbas Zafar, Sagar Bajaj and Ravi Chhabriya, 'Detective Sherdil' is Ali Abbas Zafar's second collaboration with Diljit Dosanjh's after the acclaimed Jogi. The film marks directorial debut of Ravi Chhabriya.

On collaborating with Diljit, producer Ali Abbas Zafar said, "Diljit and I have previously worked on Jogi. After wrapping that film, I was sure we must work together again. He is one of the biggest stars we have, and now, as we bring Detective Sherdil to audiences, I still can't believe we've wrapped up our second collaboration! Our film will charm you with comedy, and thrill you with mystery, it's an out and out family watch".

Sharing his thoughts on the release, producer Himanshu Mehra added, "There are very few stars who have the versatility to pull off humor with the same ease as they handle suspense. Diljit is one such star actor. I'm very excited to bring families all over together for this thrilling ride on Zee5 on 20th June 2025."

Kaveri Das - ZEE5, Business Head, Hindi, also shared what audience can expect from the film.

"At ZEE5, we understand the enduring charm of a good whodunit--but we also know today's viewers want more than just clues and culprits. With Detective Sherdil, we're dialing up the mystery and mixing it with a twist of wit and unconventional storytelling. Think shadowy secrets, eccentric suspects, and plot turns you won't see coming--all delivered with a wink," Kaveri said.

'Detective Sherdil' is produced by Himanshu Mehra, Ali Abbas Zafar, Rohini Singh and Manmeet Singh.

Excited for this! But I hope they don't make it too formulaic. Indian detective stories often follow the same pattern. With Diljit's charm and Budapest backdrop, they have potential to create something fresh.

Diana Penty and Boman Irani are great casting choices! But I'm slightly worried about the director being new. Hope the writing team keeps the quality consistent throughout the film.

ZEE5 is really stepping up their game. But I hope they don't compromise on the mystery aspect just to make it family-friendly. A good detective story needs proper suspense building.

Diljit paaji is the perfect choice for this role - he can do serious and funny equally well. Just hoping the script does justice to his talent. The team behind Jogi gives me confidence though!
