I don't write reviews but the ratings break my heart. The show shows exactly what is wrong with the Indian society. The bad ratings and the backlash proves how ignorant and overtly sensitive we are to the truth. Stellar performances, incredibly layered characters, amazing character building, brilliant writing & direction. This tops Sacred Games for me as an overall show. Believe a stranger, give it a watch if you haven't. Watch it with an open mind. Set aside your ego and privileges before you do, though.

Really enjoyable serial. The characters had real depth and the whole thing was quite entertaining.

Saw the series in one sitting What a amazing show and excellent acting by jaideep . The overall concept is excellent Hats off to the screenplay and gripping story Thumbs up

At first I was ignoring it thinking it's just some discount Mirzapur show. Also I believed the whole "Anti Hindu" controversy and thought it's also like Ashram or something like that. Turns out I was wrong. I watched it on the last day of my Prime subscription and I binge watched it in one sitting of 10 hours. After watching it even Mirzapur looks like Hum Saath Saath Hain.

I saw this few days back on Amazon Prime n i found this to be more darker than Sacred Games.

It is one of the best police investigative thriller n Jaideep Ahlawat nailed the character of Haathi Singh. What a performance he gave.

The series has lots of twists n turns but it gets very gory n brutal at times. I forwarded the rape scene.

The last episode fits exactly like a jigsaw puzzle.

This series delves into the ideas of caste discrimination, religious communalism, political corruption and the repercussions of violence.

In an industry where everyone wants to be politically correct, this one has *alls of steel to tackle religious fanaticism, persecution of minorities, subjugation of the lower castes, child abuse, discrimination against transgenders and the pathetic state of women safety in rural India.

It gets you hooked. It is a brilliant story that keeps you at the edge of your seat. Jaideep Alhawat is brilliant as the leading man. Neeraj Kabi never dissapoints but the star of the show is Abhishek Banerjee. He is simply brilliant in every scene.

I can't help but seeing this as the True Detective Season 1 in Indian setting.

Everything is not as it seems and there's so many layers to these secrets. Even the protagonist is a flawed character but trying very hard to finish this one particular make or break case.

Just like the True Detective, the protagonists need to solve this case to the very end, no matter what it unravels. Kudos to the writers, directors and actors/actresses and all that made this show possible.

Brilliant brutal unflinching funny daring. Certainly a different way of storytelling which pulls no punches. an introduction to areas of modern and historic India that I wasn't aware of. Great performances, top quality production. Max points

It's a gripping story and amazing acting. The rating has been brought down by internet trolls. Deserves to be above 8

Paatal Lok Season 2 proves that lightning can strike twice, building masterfully on the foundation laid by its predecessor while retaining the gritty authenticity that made the first season a landmark in Indian streaming content. The series continues to distinguish itself through its unflinching portrayal of India's law enforcement, eschewing Hollywood glamour for a raw, unvarnished look at police work in the subcontinent.

At the heart of this narrative tapestry stands Jaideep Ahlawat's Hathiram Chaudhary, whose dogged determination to uncover the truth remains the show's moral compass. Ahlawat's performance continues to be a masterclass in subtle characterization, bringing depth and humanity to a character who navigates the murky waters between duty and political reality. The series' greatest strength lies in how it allows Hathiram's relentless pursuit of justice to drive the story forward, while never losing sight of the personal cost such dedication extracts.

The show's pacing deserves special mention, demonstrating remarkable narrative discipline. Each episode is crafted with surgical precision, ending with hooks that transform binge-watching from a choice into an inevitability. This technical excellence extends to the editing, which maintains tension without sacrificing clarity - no small feat given the labyrinthine nature of the plot.

What truly elevates Paatal Lok Season 2 is its continued commitment to exploring the grey areas of morality and justice. The series resists the temptation to paint its world in black and white, instead delving deeper into the complicated reality where truth is often tangled in a web of competing interests and moral compromises. This nuanced approach to storytelling respects the viewer's intelligence while delivering compelling drama.

If this indeed marks the final chapter in Hathiram Chaudhary's story, it's a fitting conclusion to a series that has consistently prioritized storytelling integrity over commercial considerations. Unlike some of its contemporaries that have fallen prey to diminishing returns through endless iterations, Paatal Lok demonstrates the wisdom of knowing when to draw the curtain. It's far better to bid farewell while the audience is still hungry for more than to overstay one's welcome and dilute the impact of what came before.

This season not only matches its predecessor but in many ways surpasses it, proving that quality television doesn't require Hollywood production values to tell compelling stories. It's a testament to the power of authentic storytelling, reminding us that the best crime dramas are not about the spectacle of the investigation, but about the human elements that drive both the hunters and the hunted.

It seems like the series is attracting a lot of negative reviews from biased and fascist sections of the population. Don't believe them, this series is definitely worth watching. The series shows things as they are happening in India, which cannot be classified as propoganda. A brilliant series that is essential watching.

Paatal Lok is a delicately woven, intricately dark and complex thriller. While it never rises to the levels of Sacred Games (Season 1 atleast), superb performances from Jaideep Ahlawat (Officer Hathiram) and Neeraj Kabi (Sanjeev Mehra) elevate the series to a single weekend binge watch that will leave you yearning for more.

Directors Avinash Arun and Prosit Roy have managed to capture the essence of current Indian politics, castelism, islamophobia, the spread of fake news and sesnationalistic journalism all in one finely written plot. Even the smallest characters are superbly cast with a special shout out to Mairembam Singh (Cheeni) and Abhishek Banerjee (Hathoda Tyagi).

Well worth the weekend binge. Hoping for a season 2

I started with lots of expectations but found it bit slow. Acting wise all actors have done brilliant work especially Jaideep Ahlawat and A banerjee. Story could have better. Neeraj kabi acting was average. One time watch. Dont keep much hopes.

Paatal Lok is an absolute must-watch, and Jaideep Ahlawat's performance is nothing short of spectacular. From the very first episode, he pulls you into his character with such depth and intensity that you can't look away. His portrayal of Hathi Ram Chaudhary is gritty, raw, and incredibly nuanced - you feel every emotion he's going through. The writing, direction, and the entire cast are top-notch, but Jaideep truly owns this series. If you haven't seen it yet, do yourself a favor and watch it. An unforgettable performance!

Every episode keeps you on the edge of your seat, but it's Jaideep's brilliant performance that makes the show unforgettable. If you appreciate powerful acting and well-crafted narratives, Paatal Lok is an absolute must-watch. Jaideep Ahlawat has definitely earned his place as one of the finest actors in the industry!

This movie revolves around a inspector who is solving case and our system which is rotten is real and reel life both. Alhawat ji acting was superb and his Haryanvi accent and style ,look Acting and everything was amazing and worth for praising He totally steal the show the on him only. These types of movie is only showing how such type of actors are brilliant and capable of doing big things and the story also tells that public will not praise And tolerate stupid stories with big actors Theory and in future, your work and story and direction will be everything. Alhawat ji you were amazing and the one also who was is subordinate and preparing for IPS both were amazing.Loved it

This show has one of the best storytelling methods I have ever seen. Season one had such a unique and new way to show and tell a story. Season one carried the same grace in a new story for a new place.

The acting from each and every member of the cast was top notch. In anticipation of the second season I watched the first again and could not find a single flaw from any of the casting choices. The chemistry between Ansari and Hatiram is one of the best for any on-screen duo.

Each scene logically leads to the next scene and pacing is also done brilliantly. The sounds of Nagaland are subtle but capturing. Just like the very subtle humour sprinkled at a few places. Recommended for anyone enjoys thrillers and intense storylines.

Outstanding show. Jaideep is too good in lead role as an Inspector. Arguably best hindi web series on Prime or even all platforms. 10/10

Direction: Avinash Arun and Prosit Roy has done brilliant job behind the camera as they have created parallel world to Gangs of Wasseypur. But it has Left - Right and Hindu- Muslim clashes which are too much to irritate the audience.

Performance: Jaideep Ahlawat and Abhishek Banerjee steal the show with their career's the best performances. Neeraj Kabi is also in good in touch. There is great show in terms of supporting performances by Ishwak Singh, Niharika Lyra Dutt, Rajesh Sharma, Swastika Mukherjee, Jagjeet Sandhu, Akash Khurana, Anup Jalota and Savitri(Dog).

Script: After Asur, trailer of Paatal Lok gave hint for another mythological based crime drama series. However it is totally disappointed with the genre except web-series title Paatal Lok. It started with some crime and then drill down to history of crime and ended with pre-mature conclusion. In final episode, audience need more crispy and nail-biting thriller. One good thing about script is they have utilized each and every character in this series even dog.

Last words: Definitely there are many points which can be improved to make it worth binge watch web-series.

Somehow Prime has got hold of Indian Audience nerves. They keep getting it better and better. Started with Breathe, then Mirzapur and now this. No cheesiness, straight story telling, beautiful direction, genius screenplay and editing. And amazingly realistic shots of Delhi police stations and Chitrakoot locations. Perfect casting and mind blowing background score. Great work for the first time production of Anushka Sharma team. Kudos and keep it coming. Now wait for season 2 begins...!!

I was hooked on this show from the first episode and it keeps getting better till 4th episode. After that it's just dragging the plot till the last episode. It should have been shorter in length.
