Pritam Pedro will revolve around two cops with contrasting personalities who come together to solve some serious crimes. Arshad Warsi plays Pedro, the senior officer, who has an old-school approach to investigation. On the other hand, Vikrant Massey stars as Pritam, the younger cop who uses technology and computers to crack cases.

While Hirani has mostly made comedy dramas with a strong social message, he is venturing into the crime drama genre with this project. The filmmaker might direct a couple of episodes of the series, though the duty majorly lies with Amir Satyaveer Singh.

After scouting locations in North India, the production team has chosen Goa as the primary filming site, with some scenes expected to be shot in Mumbai and Pune. The shoot will likely begin in November this year, while its release date on Disney+ Hotstar is yet to be announced.

Warsi currently has a number of other exciting projects in the pipeline, as he will be seen in Welcome To The Jungle and Jolly LLB 3 alongside Akshay Kumar. Meanwhile, Massey is riding high on the success of his films 12th Fail and Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba, and will next be seen in Netflix’s crime thriller film Sector 36. At the same time, Hirani’s last work was Shahrukh Khan starrer Dunki which proved to be a box office success.
