Mumbai: Ajay Devgn finally makes his web series debut in the Disney+ Hotstar show, Rudra (he had already made his OTT debut on the same platform last year with Bhuj: The Pride of India), an official adaptation of smash hit British show, Luther, starring Idris Elba. The UK original was a landmark moment in British crime shows, way before the advent of digital streaming services.
It also features notable personalities like Raashi Khanna, Esha Deol and Atula Kulkarni in significant roles.
Ajay Devgn starrer Rudra: The Edge of Darkness released on March 4, 2022. The six-episode series will be available to the subscribers of the streaming platform from 12:00 AM Indian Standard Time (IST). As mentioned earlier, Rudra is based on the popular British series Luther and will be around a Devgn’s character named Rudra Veer Singh, a cop who strives to put criminals behind the bars. However, the criminals are said to be highly intelligent individuals as the cop navigates through the maze of psychopathic minds to catch them.
Unlike Devgn’s cop films that are riddled with set action pieces, bright colour and gravity-defying stunts, Rudra seems to be banking on a darker premise and mind games.
