The Freelancer

It was very nice to see a webseries full of action, geopolistrategic ploy and engaging visuals. Mohit raina did superb in his role of The Freelancer.

My only disappointment is that Only 4 episodes were made available to stream as of now, not the full webseries with all it's episodes. It would be a great binge worthy stuff for nightowls like me. But the team seems more concerned about the monetary benefits than its popularity and chance of being one of its kind power genre show. And why don't they provide us with the information about expected release date of the remaining episodes of the webseries.

Bottom line - Definitely an entertaining and solid show. Release of all parts altogether would make it even better.

On par with special ops ... great story, cinematography, locations , no nonsense and way better than main stream Bollywood directors... Neeraj Pandy never disappoints...eagerly waiting for remaining episodes.

Great casting with no nonsense over acting and anupam kher is cherry on top Sound track could have been more aggressive but not bad at all.

Some situations are over dramatized compared to reality.. the story so far is well built keeping the audience well engaged and on the edge Would have been great if Neeraj pandey can create his character universe and utilize them like marvel Would be great to bring himmat singh :):)

The series boasts of an impressive cast featuring Mohit Raina, Kashmira Pardeshi, Sushant Singh, John Kokken, Navneet Malik, Gauri Balaji and Anupam Kher. The series has been adapted from the book A TICKET TO SYRIA. The titular protagonist is Avinash Kamath played by Mohit Raina who is seen as a former police officer who now works as a mercenary. He sets out on a mission to save a young bride called Aliya who gets embroiled in Syria where ISIS terrorism is on the rise.

As per the trends go, the series catches the essence of patriotism and suspense. As someone who has read the book, I am not disappointed with the series.

The show starts at the same pace like most Indian defence/ intelligence shows..but what you notice soon is unlike most Indian shows this one definitely has someone looking and validating the details.

From using foreign languages in dialogues, accurate uniforms of countries, real weapons(well mostly) and also creating a decent overall flow is pretty good. Also the story is fairly grounded,the general dialogue delivery is fairly crisp..none of the usual Bollywood drama.

Definitely a good watch and a pleasant change from the usual commercial shows being staged these days in the name of national pride.

Ok, so the series is a solid entertainment. Outstanding storytelling, the thrill and suspense, emotions. Everything is top notch. It has written Neeraj Pandey all over it. Fast paced yet so realistic. Damn, this man knows how to cook spy thriller elements properly. Once you start watching you would definitely wanna binge watch all of the episodes. But that's where comes the brilliant minds of Hotstar. I seriously don't understand what are they trying to do. Just give us all the episodes at once. Or if you wanna wait then give us a 1 month window. But NO, hell they didn't even give us release the date for the last three episodes.

After watching all the episodes i can say that it was beautifully presented. There aren't any unnecessary cringy action sequences like many other spy thrillers. The suspense was well cooked and the plot was interesting. If you love spy action thriller then it's must watch..
