What Is Maddam Sir?

Maddam Sir follows a group of police officers working at a women’s police station in Lucknow. The central team consists of SHO Haseena Mallik, SI Karishma Singh, Head Constable Pushpa Singh, Constable Santosh Sharma and Constable Cheeteshwar Chaturvedi.

Rather than presenting police work only through serious crime stories, the series combines investigations with humour and emotional situations. Haseena and Karishma have very different personalities and methods, which often creates disagreements while they are solving cases.

The show also explores relationships within the police station. Haseena’s leadership, Karishma’s strong temperament, Pushpa’s experience and Santosh’s enthusiasm give the MPT team different personalities and working styles.

A number of unusual storylines were introduced during the show’s long run, including a humanoid police officer, lookalike characters, undercover operations, criminal gangs, family conflicts and crossover appearances from other Sony SAB programmes.

Maddam Sir Release Date

Maddam Sir premiered on 24 February 2020 on Sony SAB. The series continued for almost three years before its final episode aired on 18 February 2023.

Key Characters in Maddam Sir

Gulki Joshi as Haseena Mallik

Gulki Joshi plays SHO Haseena Mallik, popularly known as Maddam Sir. Haseena is the central figure of the Mahila Police Thana and is known for combining emotional intelligence with investigative thinking.

Unlike a stereotypical tough police officer, Haseena often tries to understand the emotional reasons behind a crime before deciding how to proceed. Her relationship with Karishma is also one of the most important elements of the series.

Haseena’s personal story becomes increasingly complicated as the show progresses. Her relationship with Anubhav, her family background and several undercover situations add a deeper dimension to her character. By the end of the series, Haseena is promoted to DSP.

Yukti Kapoor as Karishma Singh

Yukti Kapoor plays SI Karishma Singh, one of the show’s most popular characters. Karishma is outspoken, determined and quick to react, making her personality very different from Haseena’s calmer approach.

Despite their differences, Karishma and Haseena develop a close professional and personal bond. Karishma repeatedly demonstrates her loyalty to Haseena and the MPT.

Yukti Kapoor also played Kaushalya Singh, known as Kareena, Karishma’s twin sister. Kareena is an actress who returns to Lucknow and becomes involved with the MPT team.

Sonali Pandit Naik as Pushpa Singh

Sonali Pandit Naik plays Head Constable Pushpa Singh, the oldest member of the MPT team. Pushpa brings experience, humour and a strong family-oriented personality to the police station.

She is also connected to Karishma through her family relationships. Her character provides a bridge between the professional world of the police station and the domestic situations that frequently become part of the show’s stories.

Bhavika Sharma as Santosh Sharma

Bhavika Sharma plays Constable Santosh “Santu” Sharma, a young member of the MPT. Santosh is energetic and emotionally expressive and becomes involved in several personal and professional storylines.

Her relationship with Cheetah is an important recurring thread. Santosh’s character also becomes connected with cybercrime-related work during the series.

Priyanshu Singh as Cheetah Chaturvedi

Priyanshu Singh plays Constable Cheeteshwar “Cheetah” Chaturvedi. The character is known for his unusual personality and his interactions with the women officers at the MPT.

Cheetah’s romantic storyline with Santosh gives the series another emotional track. Priyanshu Singh replaced Yashkant Sharma in the role and continued with the character for the later run of the show.

Ajay Jadhav as Billu

Ajay Jadhav plays Billeshwar “Billu” Champat, a thief who eventually becomes an informant and helps the MPT team.

Billu’s unusual relationship with the police makes him one of the show’s comic supporting characters. His knowledge of the criminal world often becomes useful to the officers.

Ajay Jadhav later also appeared as Commissioner Vikram Ghosh, a lookalike of Billu, adding another unusual twist to the character’s storyline.

Rahil Azam as DSP Anubhav Singh

Rahil Azam plays DSP Anubhav Singh, a negotiation specialist and an important character in Haseena and Karishma’s storyline.

Anubhav is Karishma’s cousin and develops a relationship with Haseena. His storyline eventually moves into national-security territory, making his character one of the more complicated recurring figures in the series.

Esha Kansara as Misri Pandey

Esha Kansara plays SI/SHO Misri Pandey, a police officer who temporarily becomes associated with the MPT.

Her character creates professional conflict within the station and becomes involved in a storyline that puts Haseena’s position under pressure.

Pankhuri Awasthy Rode as Mira

Pankhuri Awasthy Rode plays ASI Mira, a humanoid robot police officer introduced to the MPT as part of a trial designed to teach her human emotions.

Mira’s storyline is one of the show’s most unusual concepts. Her interactions with Karishma and Haseena allow the series to combine police investigation with science-fiction elements. Mira later returns in an upgraded form known as Mira G.

Rachana Parulkar as Shivani Pawar

Rachana Parulkar plays Advocate Shivani Pawar, also known as Shivani Tai. She is associated with the Chingaari Gang storyline and later becomes an advocate.

Her character moves from an antagonistic position into a more complex role, making her one of the significant additions to the later episodes of the show.

Savi Thakur as Amar Vidrohi

Savi Thakur appears as SHO Amar Vidrohi, who temporarily takes charge of the MPT.

His arrival creates a different professional dynamic within the police station and introduces another leadership style into the story.

Awards and Recognition

Maddam Sir received recognition during its television run and was nominated in several categories. At the Indian Television Academy Awards, the series and members of its cast were nominated in categories connected with drama and comedy performances.

The series later won the Indian Telly Award for Best Sitcom / Comedy Programme in 2023, adding a major recognition to its long television run.

The cast also received individual recognition through nominations. Gulki Joshi, Yukti Kapoor, Sonali Pandit Naik and Bhavika Sharma were among the performers associated with comedy-category nominations, while Hemen Chauhan was nominated in the Best Director – Comedy category.

Why the Cast of Maddam Sir Is Special

The biggest strength of the cast of Maddam Sir is the chemistry between its central police officers. Haseena and Karishma have contrasting personalities, but their professional relationship gradually develops into one of the show’s most important friendships.

Gulki Joshi’s Haseena represents a thoughtful and emotionally aware approach to policing, while Yukti Kapoor’s Karishma brings a more direct and aggressive style. Their differences create both comedy and drama while allowing the show to explore different approaches to solving cases.

Sonali Pandit Naik’s Pushpa provides experience and a strong family connection, while Bhavika Sharma’s Santosh represents a younger police officer learning through experience. Priyanshu Singh’s Cheetah adds another source of humour and becomes part of the emotional storyline involving Santosh.

The recurring cast also helped the series remain fresh over hundreds of episodes. Characters such as Billu, Anubhav, Misri, Mira, Amar Vidrohi and Shivani Pawar introduced new conflicts and different kinds of stories without completely changing the show’s central identity.

Crossovers and Special Appearances in Maddam Sir

One of the interesting aspects of Maddam Sir was its connection with other Sony SAB programmes. The series participated in crossover events and brought characters from other shows into its police-station setting.

A particularly memorable crossover was Kavita Kaushik’s appearance as Chandramukhi Chautala, the police character she had previously played in F.I.R.. The appearance connected two police-comedy universes and became a notable guest appearance for viewers.

The show also participated in crossover stories involving Ziddi Dil Maane Na and Wagle Ki Duniya – Nayi Peedhi Naye Kissey. These special episodes expanded the fictional universe beyond the regular MPT storyline.

Maddam Sir and Its Long Television Run

Maddam Sir completed a substantial television journey from 2020 to 2023. With 741 episodes, the series had enough room to develop its characters through multiple phases rather than relying on a single continuous storyline.

The long format also allowed several actors to play multiple characters. This was particularly visible in the guest cast, where performers sometimes returned for different cases and storylines.

The show ended its original run on 18 February 2023. Although a second season was discussed later, the original series remains the version associated with the 2020–2023 run and its 741 episodes.

Conclusion

The cast of Maddam Sir played a major role in making the series one of the recognisable comedy-police shows on Indian television. Gulki Joshi as Haseena Mallik and Yukti Kapoor as Karishma Singh formed the central partnership, while Sonali Pandit Naik, Bhavika Sharma and Priyanshu Singh completed the core MPT team.

The show became more expansive through recurring characters such as Rahil Azam’s Anubhav Singh, Ajay Jadhav’s Billu, Esha Kansara’s Misri Pandey, Pankhuri Awasthy Rode’s Mira, Savi Thakur’s Amar Vidrohi and Rachana Parulkar’s Shivani Pawar.

Its guest appearances added another layer to the series. Performers including Shilpa Shinde, Kavita Kaushik, Rakhi Sawant, Tunisha Sharma, Sayantani Ghosh and several other television actors appeared in different storylines and crossover episodes.

With its combination of comedy, police investigations, emotional relationships and a large ensemble, Maddam Sir developed a distinctive identity. The performances of its central cast remained the foundation of the series throughout its long run.
