Prabhudeva makes OTT debut

Actor-choreographer-director Prabhudeva is set to make his debut in the streaming space with Sony LIV’s Tamil original series “Sethurajan IPS”. The show is a political crime thriller from Rafiq Ismail, the director of films such as “Rathasaatchi” and “Westminster Abbey of the East”. Prabhudeva, best known for his dance prowess and light-hearted roles in movies “Kaadhalan”, “Love Birds”, “Minsara Kanavu” and “Kaathala Kaathala”, will be seen in a gritty new avatar as a police officer investigating a politically sensitive murder case in rural Tamil Nadu. The story spirals into a complex battle of power, identity and justice. “‘Sethurajan IPS;’ isn’t just a cop; he’s a man caught in a storm of duty, identity, and politics. This role challenged me like never before. I believe this story is not just timely, but necessary. “Sony LIV has always pushed the envelope with bold, rooted storytelling and this series is no exception,” the 52-year-old actor said in a statement. The series, which marks a sharp departure from the conventions of a cop drama, promises to blend suspense with a social commentary on power and politics. “Sethurajan IPS” will be available soon on Sony LIV.
