Ajay's entry as the host marks a new phase for 'Crime Patrol', a show that has had several hosts over the years. Actor Anup Soni remains closely associated with the series, having hosted it for several years with his own distinct style.

Ajay, meanwhile, has played several police and law enforcement characters on the big screen. His roles in films such as 'Gangaajal', 'Singham' and 'Drishyam' have already seen him take on characters connected to crime and investigation. (ANI)
