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 !!
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 🙂!!

It is very engaging series which is entertaining as well as eye opener !!
All characters have given justice to their part ! The best part which i think is they have not over complexed the plot and kept it straight and focused ! The pace and screenplay is engaging and kept viewers engaged !! Makers have make sure not to include unnecessary elements just to increase length
Coming to dialogues they are well written and go with the character
Overall good material for a binge watch !! Go for it without thought !!
Ritesh Deshmukh acting is fabulous especially his tone representing his roots from UP . Have really liked his series Doctor look !!

One word, Excellent ! In every department.
Story is what we expect in Ronnie's work and he exactly delivered this beautifully and narrated in excellent way.
Many thanks for this Masterpiece Ronnie and this is what we always expect from you.. You have always raised the bar higher. Keep going man.
Lots of love to all the team member who were part of this web series.
Cast: cautiously choosen as per their roles and requirements and they did exactly what required.
Ritesh, hats off Man, you are such a gem, thanks for this and keep going. Furthermore, other co actors were fantabulous.
Nothing less than 10 star, please ensure the 2nd part as this industry needs more eye openers and whistle blowers. Ronnie you must have heard about the discrepancy in lab tests and people are dying due to wrong reports. (Practices like basin tests is very common) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
