The series is made in a good dark fusion of crime

Bejoy casted avinash ,saurabh ,jitin which were seen in last release series called bambai you can feel the vast difference as what director can actually do..all this actors have played very well in this series rather than the last one specially avinash and jitin ..the content is about money laundering for cross border activities which is investigated by a special force all this is displayed very well and goes in a good pace with great bgm .. The series is brilliantly made in dark presentation

The series lacks in some episodes as it is dragged by giving details about characters and their past also the climax was not up to the standard what the series has managed to do so

It's a good watch if you like dark concepts.

Story and direction along with screenplay are awesome. Some parts are predictable and storyline could have been faster. It could have been wrapped in 5 episodes instead of 8 with 5 main protagonists headlining each episode. This is tightly woven around main character so the direction has been marvellous in that sense. Cinematography suits the flow and build up. Well written, minimal dialogues are not heavy and absorbing around the storyline itself.

This is the second Avinash Tiwari series that released last year along with Bombay meri Jaan. Kaala is a series about money laundering and much more. It is a story of two generations of enmity. The series focuses on Ritwik an IB officer who is involved in tracking the money laundering case. As he tracks down a big consignment of black money being transferred from India to Bangladesh, he starts to know more about his past, a past that involved his estranged father and his enmity with a person called Balwant who made him a traitor . What this past was actually and how it gets linked to the current money laundering case is the whole story .

I have to say that Bejoy Nambiar is a very interesting filmmaker . His creative choices are quite often spot on. Even in this series, in every episode he would give us glimpses of a certain events only to give its explanations later. A good thing that he does is that he doesn't keep any unwanted intro for this series . The action sequences are pretty well choreographed except that one chase sequence in the second last episode involving Ritwik being chased by two bikers . It involves so many awkward jump cuts that you lose interest out of it.

Coming to the past of Ritwik which involved his father Shubhendu and Balwant . It's pretty interesting . Jitin Gulati plays Balwant whose character is something that will make your jaw drop as the series progresses. For many it might come across as really awkward and hard to digest. But boy, Jitin plays that character of Balwant so well almost that he becomes the star of this series. Shubhendu aka Adinath's story is also really interesting as he tries to hunt down his enemies . His character too has many layers.

The slightly non linear screenplay makes sure that you are always in hunt for answers and the series has them ready at proper moments. The emotional quotient often does not work than does . They are not properly fleshed out.

What I found surprising was that characters spoke less slangs in this series (which is a forced trend in every series these days). The Bengali accent use is a bit of hit and miss with many nailing it while many missing it. Mita Vashisth's Bengali accent sometimes sound spot on sometimes awful.

The pacing tbh is a bit uneven. I lost interest at certain points due to this but it's not a big concern I eventually watched the whole series quite comfortably. Apart from Balwant , the other villains like Naman, Bismil etc are poorly shaped by the series. The songs used at many places are really good. The failure to establish proper emotions results in certain sequences like Shubhendu being cremated feel lifeless.

Overall, a decent one time entertaining series .

Good story With top notch acting of some actor not only raw investigative narrations some emotional filling between character , chase scene I liked it. Again Avinash tiwary nailed fan from Niraj Pandey khakee, bulbul he deserve much more , same week two totally different character , Dawood to deshbhakt IB Officer, watching kolkata real street is pleasure., some scene are unwanted. But at least u can forward in home , must watch , applaud to director , team , producer., some funny scenes is also there in sarcastic way , by some side actors , so many known faces from Tv industry , good platform for them as , web series 👍

"Excellent screenplay! This series stands out as one of the best in recent times, making it a must-watch for any avid viewer. While the first episode might appear overwhelming with its intricate plot, I urge you to invest some time and focus, for you will be rewarded with a captivating narrative filled with unexpected twists and unique storylines that are a rarity in today's content.

The direction of the series is top-notch, a testament to the talent of Bejoy Nambiar. His vision and execution shine through, keeping the audience engaged from start to finish. The photography adds another layer of depth to the storytelling, creating a visually stunning experience.

Moreover, the ensemble cast delivers commendable performances, breathing life into their respective characters. Each actor contributes significantly to the series' success, making it a well-rounded production.

In conclusion, this series is a masterclass in storytelling, direction, and acting. If you appreciate a finely crafted screenplay with layers of complexity and intrigue, this is a gem you shouldn't miss.
