Lootere

Another Hansal Mehta series! The story revolves around Pirates of Somalia hijacking a navy ship. It starts with an evil plan of an ambitious man to succeed leading to the hijack of the ship and eventually his own greediness ruins him off with everything. Does have about 8 series with an average time of 40 mins each. Series doesn't bore for sure but it's quite messed up though with too many sub plots. But showcases the intricacies of crew men, pirates of Somalia, inter continental politics etc making plot look realistic. However, ending was so bad that it ruined the entire series. Had a real potential of being an impactful hijack drama but misses out due to lengthier dragged execution. Available in all South Indian languages including Hindi in Disney Hotstar. My ratings 6/10!

First frame ....first background score and you are HOOKED !

Marvel the vision and the execution of the series , little or none has been showcased about the commerce and complex web of the ocean businesses.

Refreshing , edgy and extremely entertaining. One also gets to learn the tough jobs of the men at sea and the exhausting , unnerving negotiations in every vertical of the industry

And let's not forget to talk about the acting prowess exuded by all actors ; simply realistic and relatable ,in your face characters !

Splendid , power packed performances , tight narrative .

It's GOLD which shows !

This is one of the best Indian webseries in the recent year to come out so far.

The story revolves around a ship being hijacked by Pirates and the story unfolds from there. Being set in Africa, the acting and depiction and coverage of Africa is superb. Each episode has a lot of drama, action and masala!

The direction, visualizaton and production is top notch.

The whole series is filled with twists and turns and you will be hooked on from the first episode.

The acting of Vikrant Gandhi played by Vivek Gomber, and all the Somalian actors is too good.

This is a must watch series! Can't wait for Season 2.

This show is a refreshing change to the Indian web series landscape due to its originality and solid filmmaking. Only three episodes have been released and I am loving the show so far. The show has great direction, production, and acting. An impressive debut by Jai Mehta. Glad to see Vivek Gomber getting his due. Rajat Kapoor is fantastic as always. Glad to see Varin Roopani after school of lies (kid has talent!). The other supporting actors have done a great job and the writing helps prevent them from feeling like caricatures. Definitely watch this show if you are looking for a gripping and entertaining show that will have you at the edge of your seat.

Lootere is an action crime series directed by jai mehta.

One of the strongest points of the serues is its steady hold on its narrative. The events take its time, the politics come into light and the writing keeps a track of the events.

The actors have done a splendid job. Starting from rajat kapoor and chandan roy sanyal to the african actors. Martial batchamen tchana as barkhad will interest you with his demeanor. He did a fabulous job. The other actors too were superb. Vivek gomber, though looked a fish out of water to me. His bursts of frustration seemed artificial. However, he got better as the series went on. But there was a layer of rust in his portrayal.

The film explores the political landscape of somalia pretty well, the dealings of terrorist organizations and its linkage with politics is also dealt with subtlety. The background music is terrific, of course when done by achint thakkar, the man behind the riveting score of scam 1992. There are some subplots which take time and test your patience, but once invested it keeps you engaged.
