A Visually Stunning Show That Feels Like Stepping Into the Past
I wasn't expecting this series to feel so personal, but the way it's told through Kantilal Sahni's perspective makes everything hit harder. He's not a hero or a fighter-he's just a man trying to do his job, only to realise that justice is never what those in power actually want.
The slow buildup to the massacre is what makes the show so gripping. You see the tensions rising, the way small decisions keep pushing things toward disaster, and how no one in authority is willing to take responsibility. Even though you know what's coming, you keep hoping something will change.
The performances are brilliant, especially in the courtroom scenes where you can see how words are being twisted to fit a pre-planned conclusion. The cinematography adds to the tension, with shots that make you feel like you're in the room, watching history being manipulated in real time.
This series doesn't just tell a story-it makes you question everything you thought you knew about it.
