Netflix India has just turned up the heat with the official trailer for its upcoming crime thriller Inspector Zende, starring the powerhouse duo Manoj Bajpayee and Jim Sarbh. Set to premiere on 5th September, the film plunges into the high-stakes world of mastermind criminals and relentless cops—drawing inspiration from the real-life hunt for notorious 'bikini killer' Charles Sobhraj. And yes, this one looks like a nail-biter from start to finish.
The trailer introduces us to Madhukar Bapurao Zende, played by Bajpayee—a sharp-witted, no-nonsense inspector who’s faster than “barah mulkon ki police.” His mission? To capture Carl Bhojraj, a globe-trotting criminal eerily similar to Charles Sobhraj, portrayed by the ever-enigmatic Jim Sarbh. What unfolds is a slick, suspenseful cat-and-mouse chase that zigzags through countries, clues, and close calls.
Helmed by Chinmay D Mandlekar, Inspector Zende brings a potent blend of true crime inspiration and fictional flair. Bajpayee, known for his steely-eyed intensity in roles like The Family Man, steps into the shoes of a cop with both brains and bite. Meanwhile, Sarbh seems perfectly cast as the smooth-talking, chameleon-like fugitive whose charm hides a sinister mind.
The film’s first poster, dropped on August 7, had already teased fans with the bold promise: “Chor-Police Ka Khel Ab Hoga Shuru.” Produced by Om Raut and Jay Shewakramani, and backed by Netflix India, Inspector Zende is not just another cop drama—it’s a psychological duel, a global pursuit, and a story rooted in one of the most chilling criminal cases India has ever witnessed.
With a stellar supporting cast including Sachin Khedekar, Bhau Kadam, Girija Oak, and Swanand Kirkire, and visuals by Vishal Sinha, Inspector Zende is all set to dominate screens and conversations. So, mark your calendars for September 5—because this isn’t just a game. It’s justice, Netflix-style.
