Indian storytelling is truly vibrant and expansive, and with the advent of streaming services like Prime Video, entertainment has also become a unifying force, bringing together different regions and cultures. At the same time, entertainment also has the power to bring under the spotlight people, institutions and sections of the society that have contributed to building our great nation, and continue to do so. Indian Police Service is one such institution,” said Sushant Sreeram, Country Director, Prime Video India. “As the nation marks 75 years of courageous contributions by the Indian Police Service, we are proud to bring the Amazon Original series Indian Police Force to viewers in India and in more than 240 countries and territories around the world.

We all know the unconditional sacrifice a police officer gives but the sacrifice of their family is something that not everyone knows. I salute the family of each police officer in India. You are the real heroes who take care of them and keep them motivated to serve the nation. We are standing today at the National Police Memorial which recognizes the sacrifices of 35,000 police personnel, not only have we lost these valuable lives, these courageous officers but also those 35,000 families have lost a member of their family. It’s very important to highlight the significance of the selfless service by the police force and value their valor and courage,” said filmmaker Rohit Shetty.
