MUMBAI: Burger King India has cooked up a cheeky partnership with ZEE5 to mark the release of Detective Sherdil, the new comedy caper starring Diljit Dosanjh as an eccentric sleuth with a taste for the unexpected. Directed by Ravi Chhabriya, the film also stars Boman Irani, Diana Penty, Chunky Panday, and Banita Sandhu, and premieres exclusively on Zee5 from 20 June.
To celebrate the release, Burger King is rolling out the ‘Detective Sherdil Combo’, a limited-edition meal that packs as much punch as the film’s plot twists. For just Rs 299, fans can tuck into a veg or chicken whopper jr. with cheese, saucy fries, and a chocolate thick shake—available at all Burger King restaurants for a short time only.
The campaign doesn’t stop at the counter. Burger King is also launching a Ugc meme challenge, inviting guests to craft quirky memes using stills from the film. With Dosanjh’s signature charm and Irani’s comic timing, the internet is in for a treat. Lucky winners can bag exciting prizes, with the brand serving a double scoop of fun and fandom.

Our collaboration with ZEE5 for Detective Sherdil allows us to blend cinema and food culture in a way that excites our Gen Z and millennial audience.
