Ajay Devgn to replace Anup Soni as host of Crime Patrol

Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn is set to make his television hosting debut as the new host of the long-running crime anthology series ‘Crime Patrol’. Devgn is scheduled to replace Anup Soni, who has hosted the program for 11 years. The new season is slated to return on August 31, with Devgn having already filmed 15 episodes. His continued involvement in the series will reportedly depend on audience response and TRP ratings.

Anup Soni has responded positively to the transition, expressing confidence that Devgn will bring a unique style and perspective to the show. Reflecting on his own legacy, Soni noted that ‘Crime Patrol’ has become a defining chapter of his career, overshadowing previous roles such as his work in ‘Balika Vadhu’. He stated that until a larger project emerges, audiences will likely continue to associate him with the series.
