Tanaav

Sorry I could not watch more than 15mins. Every scene is copied from Fauda. Replacing it with Kashmir, zero originality these days. There are too many shows on Kashmir now and can't distinguish between shows anymore. Bollywood will need get creative and produce original content, otherwise it is difficult to survive now with people having access to quality world wide content.

Major turn off was to see Arbaaz Khan, terrible acting, dialogue delivery. Did not have the strength to watch more. Anyone who has watched Fauda should not waste their time.

Not sure why it was highly rated, definitely should read reviews and not just ratings.

It's a direct copy of Fauda from Netflix.. though it's nit that griping, might b the reason I have already watched it. Though if not watched fauda you will enjoy this however, characters are nice presented and from original fauda series the Israel conflict is shifted to kashmir one for this. It would have been better but not disappointing as well. Shashank Arora is a really well actor and Rajat Kapoor as always fun to watch another fabulous performance. I would have appreciated a new script other than a copy paste and with the very first episode of series in 30 mins you can tell it's exactly the copy of Fauda.

Storyline is good. Screenplay is good but direction and story line in some episodes are not much convincing.

Manav vij is very good actor. Rajat kapur is a very good actor and he has given justice to his role. Ekta kaul and Sumit Kaul has very well played their role.

Waluscha looks very beautiful.

Shashank Arora's character is confused one and he has rightly showcased that. He is promising actor but still somewhere he needs to work on his facial expression specifically for happy mood.

Outdoor shooting is very eye catching. Overall it is good to see web series. Length of the web series is little dragged but still I would say it is enjoyable.

I think very few indian people out there have watched Fauda or even know that a series named Tanaav with half its episodes released (thanks to Applause entertainment's rubbish strategy after Criminal Justice 3) has come on SonyLiv.

Fauda was raw and authentic in its treatment. It was long and pretty slow paced but quite gripping. Tanaav on the other hand felt a bit faster paced and hence more gripping. If you watched Fauda already, then no use watching this series its frame by frame remake. I wont have reviewed right away after watching just 6 eps if i hadnt watched Fauda .

Now the big problem with these series set in Kashmir is that there are so many of them out there that now it feels you are watching one same old story again and again over the months. At this point, these kind of series set in Kashmir have become so saturated that its hard to tell whether you are watching a different series or the same one. I personally kept reminding myself while watching this series that "This is a new series, not some old one i have seen a few months back". Try capturing NE now. Problematic situations exist there also and a recent film named Anek had the courage to cover that then why not these series?

The authenticity of this series is totally lost in the gun fight sequences that looked so artificial at times with those vfx flashes and smokes . Gunshots sounded like some video game sounds. This where Fauda races ahead and away from Tanaav.

Acting wise, i didnt really like Arbaaz Khan and his dialogue delivery. He didnt have any boldness in his dialogues and was desperately trying to sound vocal and serious but at times it felt he was just reciting his lines. Manav Vij is a good choice .

Overall, i am not waiting any more for the next set of episodes. If it were to go by Fauda, there should be another 6 and i know whats happening there. Applause should stop this strategy immediately and also stop adapting foreign shows.

Tanaav is an action crime drama thriller show directed by sachin krishn and sudhir mishra. Its duration is 6 hr 33 min. Also this is an official adaptation of the israeli show 'fauda'.

I am unsure about the acting. Its kind of weird, there is no standout performance even good performers have been inconsistent. Manav vij with his half open eyes becomes repetetive after a certain point of time. His emotional turmoil is half baked. Shashank arora is very good here. Probably the best. Arbaaz khan does not know to deliver dialogues. Rajat kapoor in his soft, manipulative role does pretty well despite having no arc. The other actors are decent or average.

The cinematography is beautiful mostly and abrupt partly. There are some closeup shots that are so close that the characters may crack the camera if taken further. The transition shots from character to character are good. Its kashmir so scenic landscape has been used brilliantly.

The music and background score is good. The thrilling sequences have been supported well here by the bgm. However in other sequences there is an incessant tendency to use the bgm.

I liked the philosphy of this show. It does not immortalize the armed forces and also does not make the militants heroes or villains. It keeps its head in the right place and does it job. You can watch the show if you find it interesting.
