Scoop

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.

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 .

The series is based on real life events of a journalist caught in the web of lies and deceit. The 'hero' of the series 'Karishma Tanna' shines and leaves an everlasting impact with her impeccable acting prowess. The story has been very well executed by renowned director 'Hansal Mehta'.

The story invokes myriad emotions full of anger and resentment towards the plight of an innocent woman who is the suspect but turns into a hapless and helpless victim at the hands of ugly and corrupt system.

All the actors right from Ayub Khan to Harman Baweja have played their part remarkably well. A must watch series only on 'Netflix'.

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.
