Overview
- An official promo released on August 10 confirmed Ajay Devgn as the host of Crime Patrol 2026 — Crime Ka Current Season and announced the premiere for Monday, August 31, 2026 on Sony Entertainment Television and Sony LIV.
- Multiple reports say Devgn has already filmed about 15 episodes for the season, a figure described by industry sources rather than by an on-camera statement from the star.
- The season marks Devgn’s television hosting debut for a major series and is being presented as a reinvention of the long-running true-crime franchise.
- Rajesh Tailang has been reported as a second host for additional episodes, with exact episode counts for both actors left undecided by makers.
- Crime Patrol has a two-decade history of changing formats and hosts to chase viewership, and producers say they will use early audience response and TRP performance to decide Devgn’s continued involvement.
