Netflix releases trailer for comedy-drama series The Indian Detective

November 23, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its arrival on Netflix next month, a trailer has been release for the upcoming comedy drama series The Indian Detective which stars Russell Peters, William Shatner, Anupam Kher, Christina Cole, Mishqah Parthiephal, and Hamza Haq; take a look below…

THE INDIAN DETECTIVE, a classic fish out-of-water story with equal doses of comedy and high-stakes drama, follows Toronto cop Doug D’Mello (Russell Peters) as he becomes embroiled in a murder case while visiting his father in Mumbai. The investigation leads Doug to uncover a dangerous conspiracy while dealing with his own ambivalence towards a country where, despite his heritage, he is an outsider. The four-part, one-hour, comedy-drama stars global comedy sensation Russell Peters in his first starring scripted role for television, and was filmed on location in Cape Town, Toronto and Mumbai. THE INDIAN DETECTIVE also features Canadian icon William Shatner; Bollywood Movie Award-winning veteran actor Anupam Kher (The Big Sick, Silver Linings Playbook, Bend It Like Beckham); Christina Cole (Casino Royale, SUITS); Mishqah Parthiephal (SNAKE PARK); and Hamza Haq (mother!, QUANTICO, Bon Cop, Bad Cop 2).

The Indian Detective arrives on Netflix on December 19th.
