Diljit Dosanjh as Detective Sherdil

Bollywood's multi-talented star Diljit Dosanjh is gearing up to showcase his versatility yet again, this time stepping into the shoes of an eccentric but brilliant investigator in the much-anticipated crime thriller Detective Sherdil. The film's trailer, released earlier this week, has already set social media abuzz with excitement.

The movie features an impressive ensemble cast that includes Diana Penty as Natasha, Boman Irani as the flamboyant billionaire tycoon, along with Ratna Pathak Shah, Chunky Panday, Sumeet Vyas and rising stars Banita Sandhu and Kashmira Irani in pivotal roles.

The intriguing trailer opens with a shocking murder mystery - a wealthy industrialist (played by Boman Irani) found dead under mysterious circumstances in Budapest. Enter Diljit Dosanjh as Detective Sherdil - an unconventional investigator whose unorthodox methods and sharp instincts make him uniquely qualified to crack complex cases.

Assisting him is Diana Penty's character Natasha, a composed yet razor-sharp professional who complements Sherdil's eccentric brilliance. Together they dive deep into what appears to be a straightforward case but soon unravels into a labyrinth of family secrets, corporate intrigue and shocking betrayals.

"From our first meeting," director Ravi Chhabriya reveals in an exclusive statement about casting Dosanjh for this role. "I knew we needed someone who could bring charm, wit and that special swagger to our detective - Diljit exceeded all expectations."

"Playing Detective Sherdil has been one of my most enjoyable experiences," shares an enthusiastic Dosanjh about his character. "The quirks and attitude were something completely new for me. I can't wait for audiences to meet this unique detective."

Why the red carpet has fallen in love with vintage fashion
Why the red carpet has fallen in love with vintage fashion
“This old thing? I’ve had it forever.” Never has the faux humble compliment bat-back been more frequently bandied about. Even now, at the peak of the January sales, on the cusp of pre-Ramadan shopping sprees, and with new season collections filtering into luxury boutiques, buying new feels at best 2012, and at worst 2023. Fashion fatigue has been filtering its way into the mainstream for years. Uncomfortable truths about landfill, luxury leathergoods prices soaring beyond their desirability, mindless consumption being eaten up by the experience economy; is 2026 the year we finally get the fashion—fast or otherwise—ick?

For many Indians living in the UAE, carrying gold home has always been a mix of tradition and tension. Jewellery plays a central role in weddings and family celebrations, yet passing through Indian airports with gold often feels more stressful than festive. Current rules are viewed as outdated, unclear, and out of step with the frequent travel patterns between the Gulf and India.Now, hopes are rising.

Is 2026 the year crypto finally moves from speculation to structural maturity?
For many people‭, ‬2025‭ ‬felt like a year the crypto market should have soared and didn’t‭. ‬Markets lagged‭, ‬prices disappointed and we started to rethink once sacred rhythms like the four year cycle‭. ‬Some analysts suggested a 5.4‭ ‬year pattern‭ (‬with hope for a final run at the bull market after all‭), ‬while others argued cycles might be replaced‭ ‬altogether by a market shaped more by institutions than solo traders‭. ‬At the same time‭, ‬by the end of the year my social media‭ ‬feeds were filled with people talking about how 2025‭ ‬was the year of the snake in Chinese zodiac‭, ‬and that in February‭, ‬we pass‭ ‬into the year of the Fire Horse‭. ‬So what if 2025‭ ‬was an important transition year‭, ‬where crypto shed its Wild West reputation like a snake sheds its skin‭, ‬in the direction of structural maturity and widespread adoption‭, ‬under the auspices of the Fire Horse’s energy‭, ‬enthusiasm and speed‭? ‬Either way‭, ‬markets are up despite geopolitical uncertainty‭, ‬an interesting development‭, ‬considering the impact of incidents in the past‭. ‬And 2026‭ ‬is shaping up to be very interesting indeed‭. ‬Here are six things I’m looking forward to‭:‬
