Murder in Mahim

"Murder in Mahim" is an immersive experience that transports viewers into the heart of Mumbai's Mahim neighborhood. The series is a masterful adaptation of Jerry Pinto's novel, with Ashutosh Rana and Vijay Raaz delivering powerful performances that capture the complexity of their characters. The show doesn't shy away from addressing difficult social issues like caste and gender, which are woven seamlessly into the plot. The cinematography is gritty and realistic, enhancing the suspenseful atmosphere. Each episode is a rollercoaster of emotions and revelations, making it a truly compelling watch. This series is a must-see for fans of crime dramas with depth and substance.

Anwar Says: Aren't you fade up with the similar stuff of same genre on OTT. Homosexuality, Article 377 and story of LGBTQ community have already flooded and this is a fresh entry. Based on the novel of Jerry Pinto's by the same name and it is a very slow burner. Since the director Rajesh Acharya has to shoot eight episodes, many side stories are simultaneously running. If you are doing binge watch , it would be a laborious watch.

On acting front, both Vijay Raaz and Ashutosh Rana are very much in their character. Acharya Ji tried to put some comic angels at some points, which were unnecessary . The sensitive issue of male sex workers has been raised but the narratives hardly humanise the cause and fails to generate empathy for them. Even the primary theme fades away in the parental conflict, shady twists and explaining other sides of queer community.

Not a very interesting watch on Jiocinema . But , the other releases like Yodha and Undekhi-3 are not worth spending relax time. So if you are not a IPL Fan , can give it a try for the actors.

Just completed binge watching this. Vijay Raaz and Ashutosh Raana have done brilliant job. Also,I couldn't find a single character who has given an average or below par performance. The chemistry between both the lead actors was amazing. The first episode feels a little bit slow but once all the characters are established, it doesn't feel that way and you are already hooked on to it.

The story, the direction and the acting are all top class.

The social issues were handled perfectly. The way it shows both the good and bad side of police department was brilliant. I wish to see a few more seasons of this show.

From its gripping storyline to its stellar performances, Murder in Mahim is a true masterpiece of television. Shivani Raghuvanshi, Benafsha, and Sonal deliver performances that are nothing short of mesmerizing, infusing their characters with depth and emotion. Their chemistry on screen is palpable, adding richness and authenticity to the narrative. Meanwhile, Ashutosh Rana and Vijay Raaz deliver tour de force performances that elevate the series to new heights. Ashutosh's commanding presence and Vijay's magnetic energy captivate audiences, making Murder in Mahim a must-watch for fans of quality television.

I was thoroughly impressed by "Murder in Mahim." This series masterfully adapts Jerry Pinto's novel, delivering a compelling and suspenseful narrative. Ashutosh Rana and Vijay Raaz are outstanding, their performances adding depth and nuance to the story. The show's focus on social issues such as caste and gender discrimination is both thought-provoking and timely. The depiction of Mumbai's Mahim neighborhood is vivid and atmospheric, enhancing the overall impact of the series. Each episode is well-crafted, maintaining a high level of suspense and intrigue. This series is a standout in the crime thriller genre and a must-watch for its brilliant execution and powerful themes.
