Farzi

Farzi is a cat-and-mouse chase, fast-paced crime thriller that blends humor and suspense with aplomb. Raj & DK's signature style is evident in every frame, as they weave a complex tale of counterfeit currency, ambition, and the pursuit of justice.

Shahid Kapoor's portrayal of Sunny Sharma is a revelation. His transformation from a struggling artist to a mastermind counterfeiter is both captivating and chilling. Sunny's intelligence, resourcefulness, and unwavering loyalty to his friends make him a compelling protagonist.

Vijay Sethupathi's Michael is a force to be reckoned with. His intense dedication to his job is matched only by his unorthodox methods. His character arc, from a by-the-book officer to a man willing to bend the rules, adds depth to the narrative.

Bhuvan Arora's Firoz is the heart and soul of the series. His loyalty, innocence, and comedic timing are infectious. His character's growth from a naive assistant to a key player in the operation is heartwarming.

Farzi is a feast for the eyes. The cinematography captures the vibrant chaos of Mumbai, contrasting it with the sleek world of high-stakes crime. The production design is meticulous, creating a believable and immersive environment.

The series effectively balances humor and suspense, keeping the audience engaged throughout. The witty dialogues and unexpected comedic moments provide a welcome break from the intense action sequences. However, the show never loses sight of its core plot, ensuring a satisfyingly thrilling conclusion. The climax, with its high-stakes chase and revelations, is a satisfying conclusion to the story.

However, the series does have its flaws. Some plot points feel rushed, and the romantic subplot could have been explored in more depth. Despite these minor shortcomings, Farzi is a thrilling ride that showcases the strengths of its creators.

Farzi is a thrilling ride that showcases the talents of its creators and cast. It's a series that will keep you hooked from start to finish. While it may not be a groundbreaking masterpiece, it's definitely a standout in the crowded landscape of Indian web series.

I have a habit of fast forwarding scenes but I tell you every single minute here counts.. I had to rewind those 5 - 10 seconds which I missed. This is the perfection and in future it seems to get married to Family man! The hint was dropped in the series!

Every actor, every scene is perfectly crafted and an excellent research on the topic, as if the actual people behind this were interviewed :)

If there is no back ground music and we don't know the actors this might come as a docuseries as well ha ha :) :) - pun intended

Credit to Raj and DK for creating yet another amazing series

Must watch.

The series grips up into the world in the first two episodes, and keeps you on the edge of your seat through the last three. Their biggest victory as a story teller lies in the fact that you are relating to the journey of two protagonists - Sunny and Firoz - and there are times when you don't want the characters to take a certain decision, as deep within they are the middle class families, trying to make it big. While there are multiple characters introduced through the 8-episode series, Raj and DK manage to give every character their moment of glory and intertwines it seamlessly into the narrative. Despite being a web series, the emotions of Farzi are very rooted and relatable, something that director duo of Raj and DK have mastered in through their Family Man Franchise and now, Farzi. The entire Zakir Hussain track is a riot and the finest moments of the series lie in the interactions of Micheal and Pawan Gahlot. Farzi isn't just a cat and mouse race between the characters, but also their actors to be at their best. Once again, Shahid Kapoor makes a statement on why he is among the best actors of the country, as he leaves a mark with his act as Sunny. Vijay Sethupathi also makes a powerful digital debut and aces his character of Micheal. What works beautifully is his seamless style of mouthing those sarcastic one-liners as that lends a unique arc to his character. Kay Kay Menon as Mansoor too gets his moments to shine but the best as an actor is kept for the finale. Bhuvan Arora as Firoz is the find of Farzi and one will hear his name frequently in the times to come by. Raashii Khanna too gets an author backed character, playing RBI Officer, Megha Vyas, and is confident through her presence in the series. Can't Wait for Season 2 and also to explore more of this Raj & DK universe..!!

Its been an amazing to watch the acting. I loved Shahid's dialogue delivery, Vijays acting and how he beautifully managed accent and dialects. Fresh story, very good actors and solid punches.

Narration is super crisp, connected and well crafted. After a long time, i watched something natural and no filmy/fancy. Director has hand picked people for each roles and delivered with maximum impact. Each character from Chachu to Firoz to Nanu to Kay Kay has done justice to their roles. This is something you cannot miss if you want to watch powerful acting, thrilling story.

An absolute and a MUST watch.

When it comes to entertainment Raj & Dk are perfectionalist to the core ,they are completely control of audience pulse and can convince them much better... With a tried not tested kind of plot the duo does take time to settle may be an episode of two,but the path breaking ground work behind each statistics and analysis won't come so easily which is clearly visible on screen but this duo does these kind of things coz they hugely trust the castings and their ability... Bhuvan Arora and Vijay sethupathi stealers of the shows with their natural ability to carry over the screenplay on their shoulder at ease ... When the "LAST OF US " are countering problems in seeking attention...this "FARZI" depends entirely on the plot based scripting and screenplay supported by superb casting but wait the crackers are just lit watch the fireworks on season 2 for sure u will be out in a roller coaster ride with some visual brilliance...
