Zee5 has just dropped the intense and atmospheric trailer for Janaawar, its upcoming crime-drama thriller that promises to peel back the layers of humanity — and reveal the beast that lies beneath. Slated for a September 26, 2025 premiere, Janaawar stars Bhuvan Arora in what looks to be his darkest and most gripping role yet.
The trailer opens with a haunting voiceover: "Insaanon mein rehta hai, unke saath chalta hai, phirta hai... par woh hai ek Janaawar, jo Chhand mein basta hai."
— setting the tone for a story that digs deep into primal instincts, guilt, and a twisted sense of justice.
Set in a seemingly quiet village, the plot kicks off with the disappearance of a local woman, which jolts the community out of its sleepy silence. Enter SI Hemant Kumar (played by Arora), a stoic, sharp-eyed cop with more than just a sense of duty. As the investigation unfolds, it becomes clear this is not a simple missing persons case — it’s the thread that unravels a web of buried secrets, unsolved crimes, and a shadowy figure operating just out of reach.
Directed by Sachindra Vats, Janaawar looks to blend noir aesthetics with gritty rural realism. The cinematography leans into dimly lit alleys, flickering lanterns, and fog-drenched fields — visually reinforcing the idea that something monstrous lives not just outside, but within.
The supporting cast includes an intriguing mix of seasoned actors and fresh faces: Bhagwan Tiwari, Atul Kale, Vaibhav Yashvir, Eshika Dey, Vinod Suryavanshi, Amit Sharma, Badrul Islam, and Deekshha Sonalkar, each playing characters that hint at their own moral ambiguities. No one here is truly innocent — and that’s what makes the story compelling.
With lines blurring between hunter and hunted, Janaawar teases a psychological slow-burn thriller grounded in local politics, superstition, and human frailty. And judging by the trailer’s atmospheric tension and Arora’s simmering intensity, this could be Zee5’s next breakout hit in the crime genre.
Whether you’re a fan of shows like Paatal Lok or Asur, or you just love a good rural whodunit with a dark twist — keep your eyes on September 26. The beast is coming.
