State of Siege: 26/11

A good series that gives us an in depth look at the events of 26/11.

Felt like Arjun Bijlani overacted.

Story was engaging and the terrorists played an okay role.

They tried really hard to make it a good series but there was still some bad acting.

Gave them an extra star for their effort.

Show takes it peak from Episode 5. Episode 1-4 is just politics and pushing propoganda. Real story starts from episode 5.

The eight episode series unravels the untold stories and is a true to account narrative of the various events that turned into the prolonged terror siege of Mumbai on 26th November 2008. The recently launched State of Siege: 26/11 is receiving rave reviews and stars Arjan Bajwa, Arjun Bijlani, Vivek Dahiya, Mukul Dev and other talented actors and is produced by Abhimanyu Singh of Contiloe Pictures, based on Sandeep Unnithan's bestseller Black Tornado: The Three Sieges of Mumbai 26/11.

Its an incredible and interesting series which had been never seen before. I glad to see this series.

State of Siege 26/11 documents what happened in 2008 and celebrates the valour of the men in uniform. Based on Sandeep Unnithan's book Black Tornado: The Three Sieges of Mumbai 26/11, the show tries to give a detailed account of what happened during the operation and how our security forces succeeded in saving several lives despite faulty equipment and lack of funds.

As the author of the book, Sandeep Unnithan admits the show takes some creative liberties in order to make it more engaging for the viewers. But, it doesn't deviate much from the book. It doesn't over-dramatise the terror attacks to factor in the patriotism quotient and focuses on the characters without making heroes out of them, even though they are so in real life.
