Mahabharat Murders

Nicely presented pandws as a villain in the past and in future a prostitute as a darupadi a drug adicted and gay as a arjun .a murderer police man and croupt politician as other pandwas ...

Mahabharat Murders, one of the most anticipated series from Hoichoi starts off smart, and soon becomes one of the most disappointing series. Glaring Plot-holes, zero character development, confusing plot lines and hotpotched ending.

Story, concept and style was copied from Midsomer Murders which is running for over 23 seasons. Repackaged everything in the context of Kolkata with some hints of Mahabharata characters. That British detective was unarmed and here we find contrast when we see, detective is carrying two guns! Silly exaggeration.

I'm sure, they Can't attract a big number of people and those who started watching like me randomly , won't find them watching this silly series anymore after two episodes.

But, from a different perspective, I must say that they need to continue producing this type of thriller more so that they can reach to maturity in writing and making series in these genre.

I haven't yet got the opportunity to read the actual novel nor did I have any preliminary knowledge about the material, hence, I cannot comment on how this show might have transpired from an adaptation standpoint. Although, I must tell you that the presentation here, despite several trials and attempts, failed to create that certain kind of impact I was looking for.

All of its issues were not just present in the script itself, they were also quite persistent and pretty pronounced in the screenplay as well as in its character developments. As a result, not only did the conflicts and the drama fall flat in most cases, the ultimate revelation, the supposed unwinding of the mystery too came off as inconsequential and undesirably convoluted.

It was difficult to follow. Narrative and screenplay is very poor. It ruined a great concept. The director did not use a good flow to introduce characters. All actors acted well though.
