Maddam Sir is an Indian Hindi comedy action television series which aired from 24 February 2020 to 18 February 2023 on Sony SAB and digitally streamed on SonyLIV. Produced by Jay Mehta for Jay Productions, it stars Gulki Joshi, Yukti Kapoor, Sonali Naik, Bhavika Sharma, Priyanshu Singh and Ajay Jadhav.
Plot Four Lucknow-based female police officers and one male officer work at a Mahila police station: SHO Haseena Mallik, SI Karishma Singh, Head Constable Pushpa Singh, Constable Santosh Sharma, and Constable Cheeteshwar Chaturvedi. They are assisted by prisoner-turned-spy Billeshwar Champat. Short-tempered Karishma and emotional Haseena often clash while solving cases.
DSP Anubhav Singh, Karishma's cousin and a negotiation specialist, helps resolve their differences. He and Haseena fall in love, but Haseena later discovers that Anubhav only pretended to love her for a national-security mission. After completing it, he realises he genuinely loved her, apologises and proposes marriage. She initially rejects him, fearing further heartbreak, but eventually accepts. Anubhav is then ordered to leave Lucknow for a potentially fatal national-security mission, and, with Karishma's help, sends Haseena away to protect her.
The Mahila Thana receives a humanoid, ASI Mira, on a ninety-day trial to teach her human emotions. Karishma initially resents her, believing she will replace human officers, but they solve cases together. When a secret agent gives Haseena a hard disk containing details of the country's secret agents, terrorists hack Mira to obtain it and order her to kill Haseena. Mira fires at her before realising what she has done and alerting the station. The officers discover that Mira has developed the emotions Haseena wanted her to have, but dismantle her to prevent further hacking.
A month later, Pushpa and Karishma meet Urmila Mahadev Mhatre in Mumbai, Haseena's lookalike, and a Marathi vada pav seller. Karishma takes Urmila to Lucknow, posing her as Haseena to catch Haseena's killers. Urmila is actually Haseena in disguise, working for secret agent Ajay to catch terrorists seeking the hard disk, whose contents threaten national security. Haseena suspects Anubhav, but changes her mind after Anubhav saves her from goons. Haseena reveals her identity to Anubhav and learns of the hard disk. However, she discovers that Anubhav is behind the plot, steals the disk from Karishma and publicly brands him a traitor. Karishma destroys the disk, then Haseena and Karishma shoot Anubhav; Haseena loses her memory and believes she is Urmila but later she regains her memory and rejoins the MPT.
Amar Vidrohi and his team join the MPT, creating rivalry. Cheeta and Santosh fall in love, while Haseena goes underground to clear her name. Amar eventually recognises that the MPT belongs to Haseena's team and leaves. Misri Pandey becomes the new SHO, but she and her politician uncle frame Haseena. They are arrested, allowing Haseena to return.
Karishma's twin sister Kaushalya (Kareena), who had run away with money their father saved for Karishma's police admission to pursue acting, returns to Lucknow. She asks Karishma to train her for a film in which she plays a police officer. Kareena befriends the MPT team, and Haseena arranges for the officers to exchange roles with her to understand one another's challenges. Karishma forgives her after learning of her sacrifices for their father. The team then discovers that terrorists are unwittingly using Kareena as a suicide bomber and saves her. Kareena leaves for Chennai to pursue acting.
The Chingari Gang attempts to replace the police by torturing and traumatising guilty men. After several failed attempts to stop them, Karishma infiltrates the gang. When Cheetah falls in love online with Binni, a gang member, Haseena instructs him to continue the relationship to gather evidence. Haseena also discovers Karishma's infiltration and tells her to continue. Gang leader Shivani expels Binni after learning of the relationship; Binni then exposes Karishma. Shivani attempts to kill her but is stopped by Haseena's team, accidentally killing Saira Begum instead. Shivani accepts responsibility for the gang's crimes and surrenders.
Mira returns as Mira G, an upgraded version capable of predicting crimes, but is sent back to the C.A.R.D. Research Institute after being shot on her wristwatch.
ACP Naina Mathur comes to Lucknow seeking criminal Cherry. Haseena and Karishma catch Cherry when she attempts to kill Naina, prompting Naina to return to her hometown.
Aspiring police officer Shaziya Siddiqui arrives at the MPT, claiming to be Haseena's cousin and seeking her help with police exams. In reality, she has fled Devariya, where two brothers suppress women's ambitions and have kidnapped her mother, Nagma, to force her return. The MPT team, aided by Santu, Mira G, Misri and Shivani, now a lawyer at the Allahabad High Court, rescues Shaziya and Nagma. Haseena and Karishma expose the local MLA's failure to maintain law and order, prompting him to vow revenge. Haseena is promoted to DSP, but the MPT station is bombed and the media reports the team's deaths. Months later, Haseena narrates her journey with the MPT, revealing that she survived the blast.
