Sunflower

8/10 ..(-2) for bad ending .. really suddenly ends up without closing all the related stories ..

Couldn't stand more than 3 episodes. What is it? What is it being praised for?

#sanjuzzreviews A web series in the Dark Comedy, Murder Mystery & Thriller Genre, Sunflower is about a murder that happens in a housing society & how a simpleton resident Sunil Grover unwittingly becomes a prime suspect.

What Works for this: A different kind of script, not often seen in Indian Web Series. Hats off to the makers for attempting something different.

The cast is stellar with known faces like Sunil Grover, Girish Kulkarni, Ashish Vidyarthi, Ranvir Shorey. Works well & keeps viewers engaged.

There are some genuinely funny moments where the hospital staff who have come to collect the murder victims body wrap it and use it as a pillow to rest while having their cuppa tea.

Earnest effort put in by Sunil Grover, Girish Kulkarni and Ranvir Shorey. Ashish Vidhyarthi is sadly wasted in an inconsequential role.

What Doesnt: Too many unnecessary sub plots cause the story to deviate from the primary storyline. These have no relevance to the story and look as if they have been added as fillers to increase the length of the episodes.

The Story doesnt reach a conclusion (a la Samantaar or the Raikar Case), perhaps to pave the way for the next season. Not ending the story after 8 episodes is criminal indeed.

Whether to watch or not: I liked it for the innovative thinking on th part of the makers, quirky storyline & smartly introducing genuine laughter invoking moments in a story of a truely dark nature.

Could have been better though. Watch it if you like something thoda hatke !!

Adios ...🙂

The series is extremely funny and enjoyable. A strong and humorous murder mystery with a stellar cast and equally good execution. They have handled so many subjects in only eight episodes. It's unbelievable. We get attached to individual characters One of the only few Indian web series that have lined upto the standards set by western productions.

Sunil Grover 😎 Excellent acting, At first I felt singer actress was boring climax was Superrrbbbbbbbb.
