The new season will feature stories inspired by real crime cases. Ajay will take viewers through these cases while also looking at how changing social habits and the pressures of modern life can influence people and their actions.
The show will also focus on staying alert without giving in to fear. Ajay addresses viewers directly and encourages them to be cautious while watching the cases unfold.
The promo looks at how social media, the need for instant validation and changing emotions have become a part of everyday life. Ajay says, “Every era has its own wave… A time when even our emotions have begun to scroll just like that—happiness in one swipe, anger in the next… to the point where a person completely loses their composure. A crime that should never have happened. Let’s witness the revelation… of a shocking and harrowing truth.”
Crime Patrol Has Been On Air For Over Two Decades
Crime Patrol first premiered on May 9, 2003. Created by Subramanian S Iyer, the show began as a weekly crime-reality series that recreated real cases and examined how crimes were committed and investigated.
Diwakar Pundir hosted the first season before Shakti Anand took over in 2004. The original run continued until 2006 before the show went off air. The franchise returned in 2010 with a new format, hosted by Anup Soni and Sakshi Tanwar. From 2011, Anup became the sole host and went on to become the face most associated with the series. He remained with the show until 2018.

The franchise later introduced different editions, including Crime Patrol Dastak, Crime Patrol Satark and Crime Patrol Dial 100. Several actors also took on hosting duties over the years, including Divyanka Tripathi, Sonali Kulkarni, Ashutosh Rana and Sanjeev Tyagi.
