Rajkumar Hirani’s OTT debut, a 2026 Indian cybercrime comedy thriller series streaming on JioHotstar, wraps up its six-episode run with a finale that’s less about catching a criminal and more about healing broken families.

Pritam and Pedro: Overview
Pedro (Arshad Warsi), an old-school Goa cop stuck in the Cyber Cell he despises, is paired with Pritam, a gifted young hacker. Their biggest case: the apparent kidnapping of a boy named Vinny.
The Twist Nobody Saw Coming
Vinny was never actually kidnapped. He’d hidden himself away with survival supplies as part of a dangerous online “challenge” orchestrated by Martin (Vikrant Massey), a hacker with a deeply personal grudge. Martin’s obsession traces back to Vinny’s family — and, in a gut-punch reveal, to a tragedy that also cost Pedro his own son and, eventually, his marriage.
Who Is Pritam, Really?
The finale drops its biggest bombshell here: Pritam isn’t who he claims to be. He’s connected to Martin’s past, having quietly rebuilt his identity after their shared history. Instead of exposing this — or even taking credit for cracking the case — Pritam lets another officer claim the win.
The Emotional Payoff
Rather than a big showdown, the ending leans into what Hirani does best: heart. Pritam records Pedro singing a song tied to his late mother-in-law and sends it to Pedro’s estranged wife, Stacey, nudging them back together. Stacey, it turns out, once studied under Pritam’s grandmother — and her song brings comfort to Pritam’s dying grandfather. Martin, meanwhile, returns stolen money and walks away untouched.
| Character | Actor | Ending Fate |
|---|---|---|
| Pedro | Arshad Warsi | Reunites with estranged wife Stacey |
| Pritam | Vir Hirani | Lets another cop take credit; helps reunite Pedro’s family |
| Martin | Vikrant Massey | Returns stolen money, walks free |
| Vinny | — | Found safe; was never truly missing |
So did the “genius duo” solve the case? Technically, yes — but the real resolution is emotional, not procedural.
