Pill

Finished binge-watching the whole show:

The topic of corruption in pharmaceutical companies is not new. However, this show presents it in a unique way to the audience. Overall, I totally recommend this show.

Acting: 10/10. All the actors gave amazing performances. Ritesh Deshmukh and Pawan Malhotra stood out as the protagonist and antagonist, respectively.

Storyline: 10/10. The presentation of the story was well done, and it totally captivated me throughout the show.

Direction: Well done.

Casting: The casting was well curated.

Overall, I enjoyed the show and highly recommend everyone watch it with family and friends.

The web series brilliantly highlights the misuse of medicines by unethical pharmaceutical companies, shedding light on corporate greed and its consequences on public health. Riteish Deshmukh shines in his role as a determined medical officer, delivering a superb performance with layered emotions and strong screen presence. His character's journey is intricately developed, showing his moral dilemmas and pursuit of justice. The supporting cast also delivers solid performances, complementing Deshmukh's intensity. The storyline is gripping, with a well-paced narrative that keeps viewers engaged. Overall, this is a must-watch series with a powerful message and compelling performances.

Web Series Review: Pill Streaming on Jio Cinema !!

Pill is the story of a few determined individuals fighting against the all powerful "Pharma Mafia" who are in cahoots with the "Babus" in order to circulate substandard drugs in the market & carry out illegal trials on unsuspecting members of the underprivileged community for their greed and profit !!

Directed by Rajkumar Gupta who has given us films like Raid, No One Killed Jessica & Amir in the past, Pill turns out to be an engaging watch.

Coming to the cast , Riteish Deshmukh as Dr. Prakash gives an earnest performance as the protagonist though his Bihari accent is a bit off track. His partners in crime Gursimran ( Anshul Chouhan) as his subordinate in MAI and A quirky journalist Noor ( Akshat Chouhan) too give top notch performances. Pawan Malhotra as Brahma Gill , the head honcho of Forever Cure Pharma , also the antagonist here is in full form and gives a realistic tone to the whole ambience. Riteish's faceoff scenes with his mentor Dr. Basu ( Baharul Islam ) are a class apart.

However the series is not perfect and some typical bollywood style predictability creeps in to give the "All's well that ends well" kind of a vibe. It could've been made a bit more gripping and intense.

All in all a decent one-time watch, especially with short episodes ( except for the last 2 ). Decently presented with a realistic depiction of the Pharma- Political- Doctor nexus that will cause u to introspect next time u decide to visit medical practitioners for treatment and place ur blind trust on the medicines prescribed by them.

Going with 3/5 for this one.. Adios 🙂!!

Very very impressive and touchy web series actor are excellent. The story deals with reality of the health department. It's really very shocking to know about reality how the medical people works about genuinely and most of the related people hide and play game. Very dramatic and effective series. Love watch again and again. I really hats off to the director to deal with this cruel reality because every one is faced helth issues in his life and the people working for health how they deal with poor people and get credit.. beauty of the series is camera, direction, actors, story specially dialogues. Congratulations to all team.

Awesome storyline and acting by all the cast! Really enjoyed the serious acting by Riteish Deshmukh. He should definitely try his hands at this genre more! We already know what an awesome actor he is when it comes to comedy ! Keep it up "Bhava" ! Loved you. Also best thing about the series was there was nothing over the top or too much heroic or larger than life heroism shown. Just a quiet and great battle of a common and honest sarkari babu against the corrupt GIANT company and his own corrupt colleagues who constantly try to stop him Each character had so much "character" in them - for example wife of Riteish, Noor khan, Dr Basu , Ashish Khanna - All character shine ! No dull moments hence a must watch !!
