Srijit Mukherji's Cop Universe is an Indian media franchise and shared universe created by Srijit Mukherji, consisting of media focusing on police officers who predominantly solve cases of serial killers. The universe was established by crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast, and characters.[1][2][3][4][5]
The first film, Baishe Srabon (2011)[6] focuses on Probir Roy Chowdhury, an ex-DCP who is returned in his duty when incidents of serial killing begin in Kolkata. He is assisted by ACP Abhijit Pakrashi. The second film, Vinci Da (2019)[7] focuses on DCDD Bijoy Poddar, who arrests corrupt people who were being accused falsely by Adi Bose, a 'serial lawyer', with the help of Vinci Da, a makeup artist. The third film, Dwitiyo Purush (2020),[8] a spinoff sequel to Baishe Srabon, focuses on the life of (now DCDD) Abhijit Pakrashi, eight years after the events of the prequel, when he tries to solve a new case of serial killing that involves a former gangster Khoka. Pakrashi is assisted by a young police officer Rajat Chakraborty. The fourth film, Dawshom Awbotaar (2023),[9] a prequel to all the previous films, brings together Probir Roy Chowdhury and Bijoy Poddar in solving a case of serial killing that involves a connection to the ten avatars of Lord Vishnu.
