The Great Indian Murder

Sameer lodaya

The series is all about stretched entanglements of the characters with a murder

Tigmanshu has made this fiction in a good technical way from the book six suspects..it's about a murder and the story of suspects entangled with the murder..Pratik has played his role ordinarily Shashank Jatin mani has played their roles very well Richa was looking very bulky for her cop character the limelight of the series is Raghubir he played his character extraordinarily and was hilarious..the series started in strong and steady manner but as episodes travel it gets too slow and stretched in same locations with same characters getting entangled

The damaged part is that the series is of 9 episodes in 40 minutes each and when you come to end you get to know the climax is kept open for the next season which was not at all required the series would had topped if it was concluded in this season itself

My vote will be with rocket boys for this weekend.

This series belongs to two people in my opinion- Raghubir Yadav's Mohan Kumar and the guy who plays Eketi, a tribal guy from the Andamans. The kind of patience Eketi has in him in his quest to find their stolen deity Ingatayi is terrific to watch. You never see him breaking down even in hopeless situations which shows the powerful control he has over his emotions. Raghubir's character on the other hand is a hilarious fest. His split personality disorder making him change to Gandhiji like man and then changing back again to the angry barking Mohan Kumar is ridiculously funny to witness.

However, this series is extremely lengthy thanks to how the whodunit thriller is presented. Based on the book "6 suspects", this series has 9 eps , of which nearly 6 episodes completely dedicated to the backstory of each suspect and how they all reached the party of Vicky where he was assassinated .

Each back story has even more sub plots which further lengthen the series and at the end becomes really tough for us to keep track of the events so much so that many things may appear confusing towards the end.

Good thing is, it never bored me. The BGM and events happening kept me hooked to this series but ya definitely it did tire me a lot. Good attention has been put to details everywhere which is why the series is so long.

Too many twists and turns are not good, few smart ones are always good. This series does exactly the former. Not only are there many twists, but also none of them are smart ones. Still it is decent enough to make it somewhat interesting. The final twist at the end was unnecessary or maybe the book is like that only. Still I feel that we can predict the killer cuz few characters 's angles were not thoroughly explored.

As I said, raghubir and that Eketi guy are the best ones for me. Pratik has this shady character which you will figure out later. Actually, every single character in this series is kinda shady and Pratik's Suraj is one of them. Rest all have done a decent job.

Overall, take a good time in hand to watch this series and make sure you don't miss out on the tiny events that occur else everything would look vague to you later.

The subplots running in each episodes are too shallow with Uncountable illogical situations .Dialogues & screenplay both are poor. Technical aspects are average. You hardly feel engaged Ashutosh rana is only saving grace. Rest cast is wasted.

Recent book adaptations : white tiger & now this one both are destroyed brutally. Books delve much deeper & are atmospheric.

Sadly series looks hollow.

It's stretched too much. They only try to make money by keeping number of seasons! It could have been great but it becomes boating after a point.

Just a casual watch, nothing is great about this.

I am eagerly not waiting for the 2nd season. Though I have wasted 9 episodes time to see a great murder mystery unfolds. Please don't dare to make another misery.
