Murshid

I just finished watching this series and I have to say, Kay Kay Menon's performance really carried the whole show. Despite the poor direction, I managed to get through it because of KKM. The episodes being under 40 minutes was definitely a plus (only because the direction was so poor, or else he is a delight). If they decide to make a second season, I really hope they choose a more experienced director. It was disappointing to see such a talented actor held back by lackluster direction, but Kay Kay Menon's performance was absolutely brilliant as always. If you're a fan of his, you won't be disappointed.

Liked the show... Murshid..the character is designed to be powerful. Director and writer knows their job well... all the actors played well. Plot and twist is well written... at-least satisfying. Edge of the seat experience. No cheap acting or unnecessary drama. Kay kay steals the show...Zakir Hussein played excellent. Background music is great.

Cons would be, director has taken cinematic liberties to make the show better. Some of the characters introduced are unnecessary and half cooked don't know why they exist. Couple of side kick scenes are unnecessary and seems like forced them in the plot to make the show leanthy.

Worthy to wait for season 2. Again, loved Kay Kay's acting.

Don't have huge expectations but show will entertain for sure... go for it. 👍

Mumbai mafia crime series with a simple yet gripping story line and some authentic characters. Kay Kay Menon carries the series effortlessly on his lanky frame but at times you wish there were some stronger antagonists and one also misses a meaningful female lead. The symbiotic relationship between politics and organized crime is shown in a pretty matter of fact manner. On the political side, the story oversimplifies the Muslim vote. The familial legacy has a ring of truth to it. The Dubai connection feels a bit trite. Some of the supporting cast could have performed to a higher acting standard. Look forward to Season 2.

Good film Smooth Narative and No unnecessary Drama or scenes. Screenplay, dialogues and story line was very apt and to the point without much melodrama or overhyping any character.

The director has potential. Very well acted by all actors , especially As always Menon. His personality as Don was superb.

Though much improvement in needed with production and Hindi film waala Feel to the whole reels. It was like a new director is debuting in 2001-2002 that was the film feeling while watching.. character actors need better as they were more like Producers or Directors friends then Actors.

Awaiting part Two, hope soon.

The web series Murshid proves once again how a brilliant actor like Kay Kay Menon can carry an entire story on his shoulders. The plot revolves around a gangster who starts from the ground up, eventually becoming the most infamous gangster around. But the real twist comes when his elder son dies in a tragic accident, and he decides to leave everything behind.

Yet, as always, destiny has its own plans. His comeback is driven by pure emotion, as he returns to the life he left behind, this time for his second and only surviving son.

You'll love Kay Kay Menon's performance and the clever, calculated mind of Murshid. The character's emotional depth and smart moves will keep you hooked. 7.5 stars from my side!
