Scoop

After the brilliance of Scam (the Harshad Mehta series on sony liv), my expectations from this Netflix series were high. It's not quite there, probably because of a different (and less glamorous) plot (nothing comes close to Rags to Riches to crash story of Harshad Mehta). But nevertheless, quite an intriguing series that kept me hooked for the most part of it. The protagonist is a strong impactful character played very well by Karishma Tanna. There were episodes during jail ordeal that were exaggerated and elongated, but other than that a well made series that shows the dark side of journalism. Watch it for the strong performances of Karishma and Zeeshan; and the strong storytelling of Hansal!

The story is power. Binge worthy for sure. Will bring out all kinds of emotions in you. But if you want to watch it for one reason then it has to be Karishma Tanna. Freaking outstandingly awesome she is. Makes me wonder how did the industry waste her talent all these years. The supporting cast also brilliant, especially mohd Zeeshan Ayub and the actor who portrayed Jagtap. Also do let me know in case you recognise Harman Baweja!! Another good part of this series is that it's 6 episodes only and not the traditional 8-10 episode web series which always are dragged and can have a smaller runtime .

What a scoop been offered by Hansal mehta totally outrageous

To start with the content the makers have taken from the book behind bars in byculla..the making is so strong that if you start watching I bet you will get up only after finishing it..after SCAM Hansal mehta gave a step above series and proved his mark..the scenes were so intense that it will shatter you..the facts were kept open to give the audience the tour of the system..the pace is very catchy and made in reasonable 6 episodes..Hansal once again proved the innocence of society victims like Harshad mehta and now jignesh Vora

Karishma tanna was a hidden gem explored by Hansal mehta its a director who only can take out the real talent from an actor otherwise who can imagine Karishma playing such a strong and leading role with good support from Deven and zeeshan.

This weekend we have good choices like scoop and Asur 2.

The 6-episode show captures our attention with its gripping story and sheds light on the harsh reality of seeking the truth. Scoop's compelling plot has everything to make us curious, even if it's not what we desire, it's something we can't overlook. The creators adds entertainment value by taking creative liberties, but disappointingly lacks clear explanations for characters' motivations, leaving viewers to interpret subtly, making a stronger, more definitive ending preferable. Nevertheless, Scoop an essential story that must be shared, reminding the masses that disregarding inconvenient truths is unpleasant to their own narrative.

Scoop - Based on true chilling events in the world of journalism, Mumbai police and underworld. It comes with heavy dosage of speculation and thoughtful narrative, and takes journalists into a dangerous game. Story is gutsy and well narrated. Also complex with neatly woven intent. Karishma Tanna has done a commendable job with confidence, emotions, sadness and fighting spirit. Zeeshan and Harman has supported really well. A bit slow, but built in a methodical way, with crisply executed crime story. Go for it on Netflix as the web series takes audience in this ride with power, grit, politics, mafia with strong characters.
