Dahan: Raakan Ka Rahasya

Firstly, good thing about the show is it didnt overdo the zombie stuff, gore scenes were limited and were finely edited. Series was more about a mystholigcal figure and story focuses mostly on its return to village in some form and grows more with the episodes.

Now the complain is the story, series could have been made better if it was only of 6 episode and if it had little less subplots, because after episode 4, more n more subplots came which made the episodes seem little lengthy(around 50 mints each).

Production amd acting was good. Anay looked little younger for his role but his crush was cute and did her part better so did her boyfriend.

Direction amd editing was also good. It is lot better rhan Netflix 'Betaal' and maybe little less intense than 'Ghoul'.

Overall it is a decent one time watch but not something outstanding or extraordinary.

"FAITH" "BELIEF" is everything. What a great story that shows how faith changes fate! Rightly said its a battle between rationality and superstition. Saurabh Shukla is amazing always, Tisca Chopra, Rajesh Tailang, Mukesh Tiwari all are such brilliant actors.

Now I'll tell you my experience watching Dahan: After watching half of the series, I couldn't sleep the whole night, but I had to complete the series, next day I watched the other half. God help me! The last time I was this much terrified when I watched the film "IT" ... Horror, Horror, Horror! I don't like Horror, I avoid it but Horror likes me! I can't avoid. Do give it a watch! "Dahan" will keep you engaged. Rakan! Rakan! Ridhiyakan!

It's not a complete waste but nothing sort of worth your time. Sometimes it try to be a horror, sometimes zombie apocalypse, sometimes super natural amd sometimes science fiction.

All an all the writers, directors tried so many things but not a single thing goes perfectly fine. Looks like a khichdi. Length is also could have been cut short to 6-7 episodes.

Confused writing, not so good screenplay, poor editing and mediocre acting.

So many unanswered questions, so many loop holes, so many plot holes.

Nothing new or extraordinary.

Better stay away from it but if you just want to kill time you can watch it.

I won't reveal any part of story which is honestly unfair to the makers who probably did lots of creative work behind this (which I feel people while reviewing also in the name of synopsis reveals). So, the show has a good buildup in the initial Episodes which will definitely keep you hook about the folklore in the city (Rajasthan). However, as we reach to the latter part of the climax the folklore somewhere disappears which is sadly the weakest point of the plot. You will wish that had the creators explored more about the deity they were talking about it would have been more fun. Tisca Chopra did a great job & special mention to Saurabh Shukla (he just nails it anything he does, acting comes naturally to him now). Special mention to the Marwari language used here (which is considerably used- which sort of gives it a very authentic look because most of the times themes/background of shows/language are given up after 2-3 episodes)

A Good Decent watch for one time is probably it.

The series all set to give you heavy headed feeling

The concept was good and unique but the presentation was too heavy which fails to give you good entertainment.

Bloodbath,horrificscenes,killings,beheadings,black magic is been offered in high scale

Performances are just normal and nothing extraordinary is found here..the pace of the series is too slow and hence it ended up in 9 long episodes

Climax was little interesting and gave the fact which could had been introduced earlier episodes and then Tisca the collector should had fought to save the village from superstitious activities

If you are ready for heavy headed feeling then you go with this one.
