Context
Motwane is delighted to be associated with Netflix
During a recent set visit, Motwane said, "Netflix brings in a bunch of objectivity that you cannot see." "They've trusted us to write the show the way we wanted to, and they wanted a Hindi language show. That was great because if it was in English, it would've started to feel fake after a point. Maharashtrian cops talking in English is strange," he added.

Saif describes his character as "troubled" and "honest"
"Sartaj is a detective and a smart guy. The way he solves things is interesting. And part of our job as actors and directors is to find the drama in each moment. There is a lot of action and movement," he said.
