Produced by Banijay Asia in association with Universal International Studios and directed by Rishab Seth, Mistry is the Indian adaptation of the critically acclaimed US series Monk. The series stars Ram Kapoor as the delightfully eccentric detective Armaan Mistry, and Mona Singh as Sehmat, his fearless and sharp-witted partner. ing them is an eclectic ensemble cast featuring Shikha Talsania as the dynamic Sharanya and Kshitish Date as the determined cop Bunty. Together, they bring to life a quirky world where every case is more twisted than the last, and nothing is ever quite as it seems. With equal parts suspense, laughter, and layered storytelling, Mistry promises to be a genre-bending ride unlike anything you’ve seen before.
Director Rishab Seth shared his excitement, saying, “Mistry was never meant to be a conventional detective show—it’s a thriller that doesn’t take itself too seriously and yet keeps one invested and at the edge of their seats. What fascinated me is that it is an extremely character driven show. Armaan Mistry is quirky, yes, but he’s also wildly perceptive and an absolute genius. This contradiction is the heart of the show. I had the time of my life directing Ram and Mona, it is an experience I will never forget.”
Ram Kapoor aka Armaan Mistry said, “Armaan is one of the strangest, most fascinating characters I’ve played. He has his quirks but they aren’t just that, they are his coping mechanisms. It’s his way of bringing order to a disordered world. And yet, somehow, he’s the guy who walks into chaos and finds clarity. The experience of working on this project and accepting Mistry was one of the most fulfilling ones I have had in my career. Mistry is bizarre, fun, unpredictable—and full of soul. I am looking forward to the audiences meeting him on JioHotstar.”
Mona Singh, on portraying Sehmat shared, “Sehmat is strong, self-assured, and crucial to how the story unfolds. She doesn’t tiptoe around Armaan’s oddities; instead, she challenges him, balances him, even outwits him at times. She’s an anchor with her own motivations and sharp edges. Mistry makes you laugh, then makes you think—and then makes you laugh again because the characters are so unapologetically themselves. I think that’s what will stick with the audience.”
Shikha Talsania added, “Sharanya is spunky, smart, and completely unfiltered—she brings a different energy into Mistry’s world, sometimes feeding the chaos, sometimes grounding it. As an actor, this project gave me so much to explore. I’ve always loved a good thriller, but adding this kind of humour—this manic unpredictability—was such a rush. It’s so exciting when you’re with a team on and off camera that is ready to play. That’s what Ram, Mona, Kshitish got to do with our fun ringmaster, our director Rishab – we got to play! I am very excited for Mistry’s launch on JioHotstar.”
Prepare to be surprised! Mistry plunges you into a world of unexpected humor and relentless suspense exclusively on JioHotstar, June 27th!
