Gulshan Devaiah is making his Tamil debut in the new crime drama series Legacy, joining a cast that includes R Madhavan, Gautham Karthik, and Abhishek Banerjee.

Devaiah takes on the role of a police officer facing both personal and professional challenges—a part he's excited about, especially for its linguistic diversity.
