The Whistleblower

Anwar Says: Sonyliv has developed trend of producing Originals on the Indian Scams and here is Whistleblower on the 2013 Vyapum Scam in Madhyapradesh . Definitely not as well researched as Scam , 1992 but surely enlighten the headlines of impersonators caught in the scam .

The protagonist Sanket played by Bandish Bandit fame, Ritwik Bhaumik is as adequate as the show. Requisite skills and good intentions are evident but sub- standard dialogue could not make the character as strong as of Pratik Gandhi in Scam, 1992. The pick of the show is the meatiest role of Ravikishan , and he played it smartly, several notches low than his usual pitch. Good to see Sonali Kulkarni as an honest journalist.

The series is overburdened with sub- plots and could have been trimmed and shortened to six episodes. Some of the issues were left unresolved. Politicians nexus in all such crimes are a must and role of electronic media has been highlighted. A must watch, if you really want to understand the meaning of WHISTLEBLOWER.
