Actor Anup Soni has opened up about how the show ‘Crime Patrol’ has not only been a milestone in his career but also a transformative experience in his personal life.

In a recent conversation, Soni revealed that hosting the crime show has led to profound changes in his own life, particularly in the way he thinks and approaches the world. Anup told IANS, “Crime Patrol is one of the highlights of my career. I am happy that people love it. In fact, hosting this show has made me a better human being. I have noticed many changes in myself— in my thinking and my approach towards life.”

“Over the years, people have approached me, saying they watched certain episodes and learned a lot from them. I have received first-hand reactions from many people who appreciate the show and the lessons they take away from it,” he added.

When asked about how he balances portraying realities while keeping the audience engaged, the ‘Balika Vadhu’ actor explained, “When I host the show, my job is to connect with the viewers. I never try to come across as someone more knowledgeable while making them feel uninformed. My approach is to maintain a balance—highlighting what’s happening around us and emphasizing that it could happen to anyone. We all need to stay alert.”
