Really enjoyed the show.. Yes there are problems in the Screenplay.. It somehow gets messed up in the later episodes.. But this is an uncommon territory of humour that i can hardly remember any other indian tv show offered till date. It touches " sensitive " topics what most of the creators purposefully avoid for the sake of being "politically correct". But here the politically incorrect jokes land and that too in such a precision that it does not offend ( atleast it seems so) even a ' hypersensitive audience like ours. The acting espeically by R Madhaban is brilliant. It definitely deserves a watch..

Set in a sleepy hilltown this is a well made who done it thriller which makes the audiences keep guessing until the end. The influence of classical thriller of similar genre like "murder on the orient express" is clear. Or some might say the recently released hotstar Drama "Mare of eastown". Here also a local middle aged female cop who knows her locality and its people from deep inside pairs with a younger male cop after some initial clash of ego and eventually shares a bond. Apart from few loose ends the story is intruiging.. The beautiful cinematography creates the perfect ambience of sleepy small town with its myths and has become a character itself. Some characters are not well made. There is lack of sincerty at parts in dialogue writing which can be ignored. The buildup was excellent but seemed a bit rashed in the last two episodes. The actors did their part. The protagonists and the side actors are believable apart from there accents which lacks authenticity at places. Parambrata Chattopadhyay made a sincere attempt but could not hide his typical Bengali accent. The director could have help him with a bengali name instead.

8/10... Definitely one should give a try. I would like to rank it definitely within first 5 indian thriller series in OTT platform.
