What makes Kaala Paani different from others?

Its not predictable. No idiotic surprises that does not goes with the flow of the film, but naturally drawn around the subject, that has a very true possibilities of happening.

Amazing story plots, amazing acting by the actors. After some time, you fill feel like its a documentary that has real life characters. Its that real when it came to acting. Amazing cast, and its so good to see that we are finally here, where we act and show films with maturity and keeping reality in check.

Its a must watch!

This is one of those works wherein makers are not actually behind making it big in Bollywood and running behind box offices and hundreds of crores. This is pure hard work, talent and most importantly the makers understand that the people of country understand good and special content. Not that we havent watched a series or movies based on communicable or contagious diseases, but this one is special, it is commendable the way it has been executed. Kudos to all the characters in the Series, all are awesome. From TVF's short videos to This amazing work, you guys have come far and doing a good job.

A bingeworthy show, with great cast and amazing direction. What I love the most ka they got the science correct. Especially around the gene theory. Great dialogues. A lot of the comic reflects the TVF shuttle comedy.

Some flaws were food chain stuff they said. Small animals don't die first. Food chain exist all at once. Nothing comes before or after. We exist all together. Another point was you don't detect compounds like peptides under Microscope.

But overall worth watching indian series after long time. Another hit from panchayat creators. More power to posham pa films. I will wait for second season.

I have to say " This story is the best , we're like reading an fantasy book but with the real situation". The great thing about this series is writing , and the screenplay , It keeps the spectators to wonder , what gonna happen next , and That is the best part here, The director handled the characters very well and Each of them Nailed It . It does have Twist , turns and plots , which is very well scripted and they have done it without any issue . The dialogue are well written. And Last but not the least , the Cinematography , the whole series was travelling in an Island , and they have showed some wonderful Shots and some of them are mindboggling. I would suggest Please take your notes and add this series to your list . Please must watch it also delivers how people are selfish nowadays. They haven't done yet , the next season is coming soon , and I hope , they will not let down this hype.

This is an intense, wonderfully constructed series that pulls no punches.

Kaala Paani is the smartest and most intense reflection on what happened during the Covid-epimedic with people and those that carry the responsibility to govern them. The story centers around the outbreak of a deadly infection that happens on the Andaman and Nicobar islands, which are a part of India.

The story follows characters on all levels of society. Tourists, that are caught unaware by the epidemic. Doctors that try to fight it. Public officials who try to manage the situation or try to exploit it for their own gains. Corporate executives who try to cover up their role in spreading the disease. A group of natives who play a very special role in fighting the disease.

The writers of Kaala Paani created wonderfully rich and layered characters, each of them with their own meaningful challenges, flaws and abilities. And as a viewer, I was heavily invested and interested in their individual fates.

Kaala Paani has a meta-theme that glues together all these story elements. A meta theme that is introduced with a little side story at the beginning of the second episode: Which decision will you take if there are only bad solutions, you have the power to choose between those bad solutions and whatever you choose, the result of your decision will be the loss of life (the "trolley problem").

Most of the characters we follow - whether they are people in power or everyday people - are confronted at some point in time with such a decision, some of them even more than once. And in Kaala Paani those decisions have stark consequences. People we viewers might assume are "save", because they are essential for the story will die. The actions of seemingly unimportant side characters might have ripple effects that can change the whole scenario.

In short: Wonderful story telling :-)

Side note: As someone who has never been in India, I highly enjoyed this small window into Indian culture and society that is given by this series. Thanks a lot to the creators and writers of this story.

Final Verdict: Watch this series if you enjoy intense and gripping character drama that centers around the outbreak of a deadly disease and is set up on a beautiful island archipelago.
