Powder

First things first, 'Powder' has to be the best thing that has happened to Indian television in the last 15 years! Intelligent & Crisp!

The entire series was scripted intelligently with the characters being well sketched & believable. The thorough research done by the director & his team is pretty evident as the plot never loses steam or lacks depth. The attention to detail too was commendable right through the series.

Performances by Manish Chaudhary, Geetika Tyagi, Rahul Bagga & all others were memorable, to say the least. However, for me it was Pankaj Tripathi who stood out for his portrayal of Naved Ansari - the smart, sly, calculated drug lord, who's always one step ahead!

All in all, the first season of 'Powder' was so well conceptualized & competently executed that it leaves you craving & praying for more!

Kudos to Atul Sabharwal & his team for giving us this gripping crime-thriller.

Really hoping to see them carry on the good work into the second season!
