Powder, an Indian Crime Drama released in 2010 & now streaming on Netflix was actually born in the wrong era of Indian Television History, which predominantly focused on more bogused & plotless shows at that time ( and even till now).
However, after watching the entire series you will have a fair amount of knowledge how Enforcement Departments work in India along with the pressure of Bureucracy & Red Tapism.
Powder, follows the story of Usmaan Ali Malik(Manish Chaudhary) & his subordinates of Narcotics Control Bureau who are in pursuit of A Drug Syndicate run by a Notorious Drug lord Naved Ansari (Pankaj Tripathi) who plans on leaving the country in search of a new haven.
The Plot looks simple but has been wooven by Atul Sabharwal (Director & Writer) in a very neat & phased manner. Their are hardly any instances when you will be able to point out that the scenes have been exaggerated or any character is over-defying. The Strong Point of this show lies in both acting & direction. From Brinda to Raja every sub characters are positioned in a perfect manner kudos to Atul Sabharwal. This show is one hell of a ride from Streets of Mumbai to Political Corridors of Delhi & then Ending on. . .(well lets keep that a secret for now). Just for the sake of how good this show is let me remind you this show came 5 years before Narcos & you will still feel those vibes from the Main Antagonist (Naved Ansari) you may also sense a bit of #METoo (remind you again this show came 8 years before this movement) on how the director has never overshadowed its female protagonist in the show, she is tough & independent.
Sadly it could not ascend to Season 2 but its a fresh & a mindblowing take on the rivalry between Enforcement Departments & Drug Smuggling in India.
Watch this Show for the Final Confrontation between "Usmaan & Naved" which wont let you take your eyes off! It's a Must Watch

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!

A very well written and directed show which has been equally well brought to life by it's actors. Each character was well researched and given ample screen time. The ending, though seems rushed which is understandable given that the show was ended in its first season.
Indian audience were not ready for such a show then. But an online platform brought it back. A next season though improbable but is highly anticipated.
The TV series 'Powder' is a must watch! Meticulously sewn together with immaculate storyline, talented actors & top-quality screenplay, this series is one-of-a-kind, which does not refuge any loose end. It is a slow-paced yet highly captivating Narcotics drama that shows the two sides of the same coin. Brought alive by an online films and Tv app, this show breathes a new life to the otherwise trite Narcotics or crime shows by showing the effort & hardwork of four apex law-enforcement agencies in nabbing a common target while ignoring the regular sensational snort or trippy scenes. Honestly, It is a superlative product of some amazing groundwork & top-rated execution. Kudos to the team! In anticipation of reviving the series & telecasting its second season/ further episodes.
One of the best crime show in Indian television. Story revolves around the narcotics department & drug lord. Manish (as Usmaan Ali ) keep maintains the attitude of real NCB officer. My favorite character is of Rahul bagga (as Mahendra Ranade), playing a role of intelligence officer. he is daring, intelligent 'Jugadu' and courageous. Geetika (Brinda) is also playing as intelligence officer proving the women power. Pankaj (as Naved Ansari) is drug dealer in mumbai & want to settle in Dubai. All of the actors are really wearing the soul of their characters. this show also reveals the race b/w NCB & other Indian crime organizations to catch the Naved ansari. Looks like that this series making involved a lot of research work. A must watch Indian TV show..
