Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn will now be seen in a cop role as he makes his grand entry in the digital space with his first-ever web series, Rudra The Edge of Darkness. 

The Hotstar Specials series will soon be going into production and will be shot across iconic locales of Mumbai. The web series is an interesting and dark new take on cop stories, combined with an unusual storytelling format and robust characters, will make Rudra – The Edge of Darkness a must-watch for fans of thrillers and crime dramas. 

Rudra – The Edge of Darkness is produced by Applause Entertainment in association with BBC Studios India. The series reimagines the popular globally successful British series – Luther, for Indian audiences. 

Rudra - The Edge of Darkness marks the next bold move by Hotstar Specials in raising the bar of quality content in India.

Actor Ajay Devgn said, “My attempt has always been to tell unique stories and work with good talent. The idea is to raise the bar of entertainment in India. The digital world excites me, and I am looking forward to working with Applause and BBC to bring this series to life on Disney+ Hotstar VIP. Rudra - The Edge of Darkness is a compelling and highly intriguing story and I can't wait to begin this new journey! Playing a cop on screen is not new to me, but this time the character is more intense, complex and dark. What drew me most to his persona, is that he is possibly the greyest character you may come across in recent times.”
