Khoj: Parchaiyo Ke Uss Paar

Recently seen web series... storyline is similar to classic old movie even name is same....old version is very grippy and cult...new version has failed to deliver thriller...even few changes made according to technology but it has lost its soul... starting episodes are fine but climax is very poor...you don't feel any curiosity or tense situation... direction is also sloppy not provide enough twist to drag you till the end.. storyline has enough potential to hold you but executions are disappointing.. watch only if you not seen old movie...or for timepass only.. actors are decent and loction are soothing..that's only postive...it's failed attempt for thriller.

Story was going goog, but at the end, that same climax we have seen already in many stories. We expect something different in today's OTT era. Every character involved in the conspiracy is much more predictable and more complex stories with complex climax are available and seen by the audience. However, the story keeps binding us until the last episode in the hope that something unpredictable would come out to watch. Series successfully entertains us and actors have done a good work. Series leaves some things unclarified like how they convince some characters to take part in the conspiracy, especially the child.

"Khoj: Parchaiyon Ke Uss Paar" starts strong with an intriguing premise: Ved (Sharib Hashmi) reports his wife Meera missing, only for a woman (Anupriya Goenka) to show up who claims to be her. While this setup is promising, the plot starts to drag as the episodes progress, with predictable twists and repetitive moments that take away from the suspense. Additionally the makers fail to land the ending resulting in a comedic revelation rather than the dramatic effect they were aiming for. Sharib Hashmi delivers a convincing performance, and Anupriya Goenka is solid too, but even their efforts can't save the show from feeling overstretched especially considering it's a remake of a movie that itself was under two hours.

The new web series attempts to reimagine a gripping narrative first presented in the 1957 classic Chase a Crooked Shadow and later adapted into the 1989 Hindi film Khoj, starring Rishi Kapoor and Naseeruddin Shah. Unfortunately, the series falls flat, failing to capture the intrigue and brilliance of its predecessors.

While the core mystery remains intact, the web series drags through poorly written dialogues and lackluster direction. Where the original Khoj kept audiences on the edge of their seats, this remake suffers from inconsistent pacing and an over-reliance on clichés.

In trying to recreate a story already told twice with finesse, the new Khoj web series only serves as a reminder of what made the originals great. If you're looking for gripping suspense, you'd be better off revisiting the 1989 Khoj or the 1957 Chase a Crooked Shadow. This remake, sadly, is a waste of time.

Series fit for not very smart people with less intelligence.

Poor story line with very weak character.

The main character of the series is shown as a successful lawyer who does not know anything about law and is jst a stupid man.

The lady playing the character of the wife is played by an amateur actor who does b grade movies and series and should not be allowed to do any acting at all.

The child is shown with an age of 8-10 years who is pranking the father and supporting the police which is not realistic at all as a child of this less age will not be able to act and portray the character in such a way.

This is a pathetic recreation of age old movie with a predicate and boring ending.
