Really enjoyable serial. The characters had real depth and the whole thing was quite entertaining.

I saw this few days back on Amazon Prime n i found this to be more darker than Sacred Games.

It is one of the best police investigative thriller n Jaideep Ahlawat nailed the character of Haathi Singh. What a performance he gave.

The series has lots of twists n turns but it gets very gory n brutal at times. I forwarded the rape scene.

The last episode fits exactly like a jigsaw puzzle.

This series delves into the ideas of caste discrimination, religious communalism, political corruption and the repercussions of violence.

In an industry where everyone wants to be politically correct, this one has *alls of steel to tackle religious fanaticism, persecution of minorities, subjugation of the lower castes, child abuse, discrimination against transgenders and the pathetic state of women safety in rural India.

I can't help but seeing this as the True Detective Season 1 in Indian setting.

Everything is not as it seems and there's so many layers to these secrets. Even the protagonist is a flawed character but trying very hard to finish this one particular make or break case.

Just like the True Detective, the protagonists need to solve this case to the very end, no matter what it unravels. Kudos to the writers, directors and actors/actresses and all that made this show possible.

It seems like the series is attracting a lot of negative reviews from biased and fascist sections of the population. Don't believe them, this series is definitely worth watching. The series shows things as they are happening in India, which cannot be classified as propoganda. A brilliant series that is essential watching.

It gets you hooked. It is a brilliant story that keeps you at the edge of your seat. Jaideep Alhawat is brilliant as the leading man. Neeraj Kabi never dissapoints but the star of the show is Abhishek Banerjee. He is simply brilliant in every scene.
