Tanaav

It's a direct copy of Fauda from Netflix.. though it's nit that griping, might b the reason I have already watched it. Though if not watched fauda you will enjoy this however, characters are nice presented and from original fauda series the Israel conflict is shifted to kashmir one for this. It would have been better but not disappointing as well. Shashank Arora is a really well actor and Rajat Kapoor as always fun to watch another fabulous performance. I would have appreciated a new script other than a copy paste and with the very first episode of series in 30 mins you can tell it's exactly the copy of Fauda.

The series is a remake / inspired from Israel series FAUDA. Acting performance of all the characters are up to the mark. VFX & Cinematography are also good. Just one thing which is missing from the series is a good background score which is necessary for a series like this. Apart from that some unnecessary romantic scenes were included which is not at all needed. The chasing and kidnaping scenes are also not convincing, I mean literary they started firing and kidnaping anywhere in the city and also hurt 2-3 people at the same time. Good to watch if you have nothing to watch in your bucket list.

Could have done better. It's a copy of the Israeli blockbuster series Fauda, however could not achieve the expected results.

The characters, the setup, the plot, the story line, all of them follows the original series. The plot although was made fit for the Indian viewers by using the old and popular chapter.

It isn't bad, you might enjoy it if you have not watched the original. The video quality and locations are fantastic if you can enjoy on big & quality screen. The locations were used appropriately and a lot of strength to the series. The actors have done a fine job .

Overall, it's not a bad watch.

Excellently shot in picturesque locales. A thrilling series of plots & intrigue. It tells a tale of cause & rise of militancy in the beautiful valley of Kashmir with alleged vested political interests of the local leaders & across the border groups. How the youths were influenced by the ongoing situation.. It portrays the sufferings of the local population in difficult times & their sympathies with the disoriented groups encouraged by the outsiders. It also portrays the difficult times faced by local population and suffering faced by the security & intelligence agencies along with local population. The unity amongst locals is a treat to watch. At times the atrocities by agencies is also touched upon. The acting at times is too amatuerish though.

I think very few indian people out there have watched Fauda or even know that a series named Tanaav with half its episodes released (thanks to Applause entertainment's rubbish strategy after Criminal Justice 3) has come on SonyLiv.

Fauda was raw and authentic in its treatment. It was long and pretty slow paced but quite gripping. Tanaav on the other hand felt a bit faster paced and hence more gripping. If you watched Fauda already, then no use watching this series its frame by frame remake. I wont have reviewed right away after watching just 6 eps if i hadnt watched Fauda .

Now the big problem with these series set in Kashmir is that there are so many of them out there that now it feels you are watching one same old story again and again over the months. At this point, these kind of series set in Kashmir have become so saturated that its hard to tell whether you are watching a different series or the same one. I personally kept reminding myself while watching this series that "This is a new series, not some old one i have seen a few months back". Try capturing NE now. Problematic situations exist there also and a recent film named Anek had the courage to cover that then why not these series?

The authenticity of this series is totally lost in the gun fight sequences that looked so artificial at times with those vfx flashes and smokes . Gunshots sounded like some video game sounds. This where Fauda races ahead and away from Tanaav.

Acting wise, i didnt really like Arbaaz Khan and his dialogue delivery. He didnt have any boldness in his dialogues and was desperately trying to sound vocal and serious but at times it felt he was just reciting his lines. Manav Vij is a good choice .

Overall, i am not waiting any more for the next set of episodes. If it were to go by Fauda, there should be another 6 and i know whats happening there. Applause should stop this strategy immediately and also stop adapting foreign shows.
