Mistry OTT Release Date: If you¡¯ve ever been a fan of Monk, the iconic American detective series that mixed crime-solving with the quirks of OCD, you¡¯ll likely feel a familiar tug of nostalgia with Mistry, the Indian adaptation set to premiere soon. Starring Ram Kapoor in the lead role, Mistry will be streaming on JioHotstar starting June 27, 2025.
What is Mistry all about?
Mistry brings back that unforgettable detective energy, this time with a desi twist. Ram Kapoor plays Armaan Mistry, a gifted but deeply troubled detective battling obsessive-compulsive disorder much like the original character Adrian Monk, played by Tony Shalhoub in the original. From avoiding handshakes to compulsively counting things, Kapoor¡¯s character shares the same compulsions that made Monk both heartwarming and heartbreaking.
Meet the team behind Mistry
Alongside Ram Kapoor, the show features Mona Singh as ACP Sehmat Siddiqui, the tough and empathetic cop who often grounds Armaan¡¯s chaotic brilliance. Also joining the ensemble are Shikha Talsania and Kshitish Date in important roles. Mistry is directed by Rishab Seth and produced by Banijay Asia, in association with Universal International Studios.
Ram Kapoor, speaking about his role, said in a media statement, ¡°Armaan Mistry is a character unlike any I¡¯ve played before. The whole experience of shooting Mistry was so immersive - I have deep-dived into this character and understood his quirks, his brilliance and his vulnerabilities. It is a character very close to my heart, and I am thrilled with how it has come out.¡±
With Banijay Asia and NBCUniversal Formats collaborating, there has been a clear effort to retain the soul of the original Monk while tailoring it to Indian audiences. Deepak Dhar of Banijay Asia described the show as ¡°a seamless blend of crime, humour and heart,¡± while NBCUniversal¡¯s Linfield Ng praised Kapoor¡¯s performance and the creative team for capturing the ¡°spirit of the original.¡±
