Murder in Agonda

The rating 7 is justified for this movie. 6 also be a perfect one. As it is forcefully dragged to a sequel. Necessary songs, and some Necessary action sequences, God-like hero, a typical south Indian element. The first song, the location, acting are only the good ones.

Thrice my reviews which got more than 100 likes . The film is well acted n directed. It is for the first time that an Indian movie has dealt with a subject about patriarchal mindset which has this attitude.

Must watch film for all Indian families Appreciate the CREW for making a real movie than commercial masalas CAST 5/5 Well executed movie by combining different family situations and portraying it precisely to make understand everyone the problem which is faced by many in this civilized ages.

Web series review: Murder in Agonda ( streaming on the free Amazon MiniTv app available in the Amazon Shopping app) #sanjuzzreviews #murderinagonda #shriyapilgaonkar #amazonminitv Set in the sleepy village of Agonda in Goa, things start heating up when Mala Coutinho (Lilette Dubey), the sole owner of a 200 year old Portugese villa is stabbed to death in her bed on Christmas Eve. Junior cop, Sanku aka Sanket Salelkar, gets the first murder case of his career. Pushed into a corner to get results & with his career under threat from his boss, Sanku convinces his elder sister Sarla, an ex-forensic investigator to help him solve the case. As they start investigating, the seemingly straight forward case turns into a complex maze of lies and deceit. Will the brother sister duo crack the case and get to the truth?

Shriya Pilgaonkar rocks once again, this time in her role as forensic expert Sarla, as she blends in seamlessly into the character with ease. Kudos to the lady !! Can't help but go ga-ga over her recent performances 👍👍!!

Others in the cast like Sanku ( Aarif Khan), Lillette Dubey ,Naseer Abdullah, Kubra Sait too lend invaluable support to the protagonist.

The story has a very laid back narrative in tune with susegaad ( relaxed) culture of Goa. It however doesn't let your interest falter one bit as the needle of suspicion moves from one suspect to another leading to a well conceived climax. Don't expect any adrenaline rush moments as it has an art film kind of a flavour to it !!

Easy on the eyes, this five part series with each episode having a runtime of around 25 mins is a good bingewatch option.

My rating for this is 3/5 .. adios 🙂 !!

I felt uncomfortable, uneasy & was literally sinking on my seat and that precisely is what this movie wants you to feel while showcasing certain aspects of life which, at least I, personally never even thought about, forget about considering them to be wrong. Best movie.
