Murshid

Mumbai mafia crime series with a simple yet gripping story line and some authentic characters. Kay Kay Menon carries the series effortlessly on his lanky frame but at times you wish there were some stronger antagonists and one also misses a meaningful female lead. The symbiotic relationship between politics and organized crime is shown in a pretty matter of fact manner. On the political side, the story oversimplifies the Muslim vote. The familial legacy has a ring of truth to it. The Dubai connection feels a bit trite. Some of the supporting cast could have performed to a higher acting standard. Look forward to Season 2.

Although every single person is having good screen presence for themselves, KK Menon and Zakir Hussain have stolen the show. I have always been a super huge fan of their acting and never miss their movies or shows. The web series has a good pace although it's predictable. The whole web series uses less guns but more of strategic mind game and it doesn't bore you at all.

The story narration by the director is good and the calm though ruthless role played by Mr. Menon leaves a deep impact.

Mr. Zakir Hussain as usual and as expected is great in his expressions and acting throughout the series.

This is a good must watch web series if you like crime and political thrillers. Thumbs up !

I just finished watching this series and I have to say, Kay Kay Menon's performance really carried the whole show. Despite the poor direction, I managed to get through it because of KKM. The episodes being under 40 minutes was definitely a plus (only because the direction was so poor, or else he is a delight). If they decide to make a second season, I really hope they choose a more experienced director. It was disappointing to see such a talented actor held back by lackluster direction, but Kay Kay Menon's performance was absolutely brilliant as always. If you're a fan of his, you won't be disappointed.

The New Web Series Murshid proves once again that Kay Kay Menon can play any role with Uttar Perfectionml. He is no doubt one of the brilliant Actors of Bollywood today. Menon can make a dull theme attractive and worthy to watch.

The plot of the Film is not new. There is nothing new in this Web Series that repeats the theme of rivalry among gangsters to dominate the underworld of Mumbai. The Bollywood has experimented the theme repeatedly. The Web Series no doubt tries to depict the underworld Gangster-Police-Politician cocktail in a different way. The projection of an underworld having humanistic approach is also not new taking into consideration the Films made so far. However, in some points the Web Series tries to prove reality of Mumbai and the inherent crime and mafia rule r convincingly. The Coriography and site Selection for some scenes to shoot exposes personal life of those involved in the Crime World of Mumbai. But the Web Series by no means a Crime Thriller and the element of Suspense is missing.

Kay Kay Menon takes forward the entire action in this Web Series. The character Murshid has been projected as a Gangsters with great Accountability for the society. Kay Kay Menon has made the only difference in in this Web Series. This is not a negative character. But Menon has performed in an excellent manner. However, portrayal of Robinhood is nothing new in Indian cinema. But the performances of Menon gives elevation to the Web Series. Menon has been simply brilliant in whatever role he has played during the last few years. Both his dialogue delivery, facial expression and gesture have been excellent during this Web Series.

But Kay Kay Menon Shines and outshines others For the Menon-fans. Menon has really proved . To watch Menon playing a brilliant role, one may watch and enjoy.

I really like the story line and the characters, so whoever wrote the story and screenplay did a good job. But the acting seems very weird in some portions, it's almost like the director didn't delve into the characters and language of the underworld. The supporrting actors didn't do a good job, I would say the actors weren't selected properly. These kind of series should have selections from good drama schools in the country or of people with previous experience. But some of the dialogues lack seriousness or relevance.

I am still in the middle of the series, and I am in the middle of a scene where the characters are hyping murshid without the story not supporting that hype yet. Does he require so much hype in every episode?
