ZEE5 has announced the premiere of the latest series Janaawar – The Beast Within. With Bhuvan Arora in the lead role, the film takes the audience to a rural town of Chhand where old hierarchies clash with the modern-day corruption.
Sub-Inspector Hemant Kumar, portrayed by Bhuvan Arora is a savage, tough officer from a disadvantaged tribal caste whose life is turned upside down by a string of terrifying incidents in the town. He is into a risky investigation into a series of mysteries that include a headless corpse, missing gold, and a missing man.
The officer faces problems of systemic bias, his own inner demons, and personal struggles that threaten to shatter him as he goes deeper into the investigations. He also faces the darkness of human greed.
The movie produced by Aarambh Entertainment Pvt. Ltd is more than just a crime thriller movie. It shows the story of a man’s fight for his dignity in a world that denied him recognition and of a community that has a firm faith in Gram Devta. Hemant discovers that true identity is shaped by bravery in the face of hardship rather than by birth as he peels back layers of guilt, treachery, and hidden truths.
The producer of the movie Abhishek Rege said, “At Aarambh Entertainment, our constant endeavour has been to tell stories that are rooted in truth yet universally resonant. With Janaawar – The Beast Within, we wanted to explore how crime, courage, and identity intersect in the most unexpected ways against the backdrop of rural India. This show is not just a gripping narrative, but also a reflection of resilience and human spirit. Collaborating with ZEE5 and Shachindra Vats has been a creatively enriching journey, and we are excited for audiences to immerse themselves in the world of Chhand and witness Bhuvan Arora in a role that will stay with them.”

Director Sachindra Vats said, “Janaawar – The Beast Within is a story that needed to be told. It was never just about making a crime thriller—it was about giving a voice to the struggles, hopes, and dignity of people who often go unheard. Working with ZEE5 has been a wonderful experience because they understood the vision and the sensitivity the story needed. Watching the actors bring such honesty and depth to their roles has been incredibly fulfilling. My hope is that when audiences watch Janaawar – The Beast Within, they don’t just see a thriller but also feel the heart that beats within it.”
