The Fame Game

The Fame Game is marketed as a thriller and if you forgive the first 20 minutes or so it begins to grow but then often is watered down by family drama and bad dialogue writing at the beginning of series, you would wonder that too while watching it how those lines get through in the final cut . Getting back to the other part of the series , parts about disappearance and investigation and as story unfolds with reasons for it are much entertaining , watchable and holds you on to the screen then what goes around with other things that I found unnecessary in the story and series . Series does have its moments when story , narrative and atmosphere builds up but if you have been watching lots of thrillers and mysteries lately you would see those things and storyline coming from miles away while you might find similarities with few other movies and series made in past in English and foreign languages . Madhuri Dixit does what she does very well and fans would not be disappointed at all , Rajshri Deshpande needs special mention along with other cast members like Manav Kaul and Suhasini Mulay . If script-writing and editing could have been better it would have been one of those acclaimed series but it falls short of it .

Give it a try for Madhuri Dixit and have patience as it is that you would need . Again Rajshri Deshpande and Manav Kaul need special mention for their acting . I will go for a strong seven but I am still hesitating for an eight.

The makers have created a good game and every one from top to bottom have played really well in all aspects.

The game is all about how the fame is safeguarded..madhuri being the key player have taken the series on the upper leagues with her high range performance..Manav kaul was extraordinary with his bipolar character..the new age kids muskkan lakshvir along with Gagan gave strong performances...Suhasini and Sanjay played good negative roles..rajshri was a true and hard cop..HATS OFF to sri rao who directed the whole game, took the best potential from every character in a clean balanced way..the aesthetic were class apart along with colourful costumes and out of the blue locations..the aura of richness and fame was well created

The series goes well in pace with mild twists ,turns , soothing music, great stars ,all this kept enhancing..the negative part was humour which was missing with some unnecessary bold and crime scenes were shown.

Watch this for new content ,extravaganza lifestyle and how a star protects her FAME.

I don't know why there are so negative comments, honestly I felt this is good series with combination of thriller and drama. Everyone acted outstandingly, I didn't watch the trailer and was not awaiting for it, suddenly watched this from Netflix Home Screen and it was really worth of my time.

It's like serving a stale and bland food by an international multicuisine restaurant. The show tries to cash on the fame of Madhuri Dixit, but unfortunately makers forgot to work on the story. You feel cheated by the end of the show after dedicating many hours of your busy day on a show which yields nothing. Very stale and predictable story with a choice of very bad and undertrained actors and above all worst than anything writing. I have given rating of 4 just for the sake of "Manav kaul" because he tried to keep this sinking ship afloat. And please netflix stop underestimating indian audience in the name of thrillers, thats disrespectful.

It has become a trend to stretch a story beyond what it can. Totally defines the greed of the producers for earning more money. Problem is that ends up becoming a major headache for the viewer which is rather frustrating! This one started on a highly promising note with Madhuri rocking in each and every frame but the story and screenplay drag...This could have been avoided had it all been packed in a tight 6 episodes instead of 8. A good example would be Bestseller(Shruti Hassan) on Amazon Prime, perfectly finishes when it should. Dharma productions need to learn that for the upcoming ones.
