Bard of Blood

Bard of Blood is a political espionage thriller that is based on a book with the same name by Bilal Siddiqi.

Produced by SRK's Red Chiilies Entertainment, this Netflix original stars Emraan Hashmi in the lead role supported beautifully by Vineet Singh, Sobhita Dhulipala, Jaideep Ahlawat and others.

The story is good however, the execution is not very great. It has been shot delightfully even though the narrative is confusing for some parts. A surprise element towards the end saves it for the otherwise lack of grip in the script. The hand to hand combat sequences are nice though. I, for some reason binge watched the whole season that has 7 episodes of 45 min each.

Emraan Hashmi is a great actor and he carries himself nicely as Kabir Anand (I wonder why every other spy is called by this name). Sobhita Dhulipala is equally good while Vineet Singh struggles a bit with the Punjabi accent but is good overall. The rest of the cast is on point.

Had there been a less convoluted transition of events, this would have been at par with the other series, say "The Family Man". It is good if not great!

Watched the complete series in just 'ONE' go, and in one word it's BRILLIANT. I love the way how Red Chillies Ent. produces by focussing on thrillers in India. The amount of twists, the production value,the acting skills and action sequences are too DAMN HIGH, can't get enough of it. Would definitely recommend. 🔥🔥🔥

Just completed watching Bard of Blood in one go and I thought of writing a brief review, a story as usual has some loopholes and definitely exaggeration of events. however, all in all it was entertaining and keeps viewers interested.....Vineet Singh was the best actor to me, Emraan is very underrated as an actor but he did justice to his role and looked good as well.

Literally got headache after watching this series , too much lengthy , don't know what's going on. So much expectation from series but Reduced interest episode by episode

Did the hard work, had the potential but just stupid super hero one man show of fighting without actually the dynamics of that area! Good drama for those who enjoy watching Bollywood without thinking too much.. Sad that after corrupting the movies we now have such senseless web series as well.
