Mithya

I felt amazing to watch all the talented and legendary actors sharing one screen and making it worth watching the show. The series touched my heart and I loved it.

Juhi Adhikari (Huma Qureshi) is a Hindi professor aspiring to become the head of the department at a college in Darjeeling, where her husband Neel (Parambrata Chattopadhyay) also teaches. The couple has been trying to conceive, a subject that has all but consumed Neel, and all but frustrated Juhi, as their marital life has nothing more to it, so much so that Juhi has started falling out of the marriage. In office, Juhi has encountered Rhea Rajguru (Avantika Dasani), a feisty and complex student who she believes is plagiarising her essays, and Juhi is out to prove it. The problem is that Rhea is the daughter of one of the trustees and is considered privileged. Rhea also uses her reputation to her advantage by charming her ways with the college resources and, once antagonised by Juhi, won't stop without a fightback.

The duel slowly builds up a crescendo in which Rhea resorts to getting personal with Juhi. She forms a relationship with Neel that keeps getting more complex with every passing day, much to the chagrin of Juhi, who realizes that matters are spinning out of control. Suddenly, one fateful night, Juhi comes home to find Neel murdered and is certain that Rhea is the culprit. Police investigations, however, do not support her allegations and, instead, suspect Juhi of the murder. The event brings the two women face to face where their differences threaten to reveal an ugly truth that shake up several people and the very family foundation that Juhi sought refuge in. Lives will be changed forever, and relationships disrupted, with no one benefitting from the duel that was merely a facade to unravel the mystery.

Mithya is a dark, disturbing, and tragic story that is hard hitting. You are forced to take sides often, and sympathies keep swinging like a pendulum as you discover the collateral damage of the duel. Huma Qureshi is spot on, sophisticated, and effective in portraying the professor and wife whose world is slowly disintegrating. Avantika Dasani is sheer menace yet credibly vulnerable as the young student and a daughter searching for her foothold and recognition. Parambrata is fantastic, as usual. Ably supported by Rajit Kapoor, K C Shankar, Samir Soni, Avantika Akerkar, and Bishaka Thapa, Mithya is a quality production directed by Rohan Sippy. Darjeeling looks dreamy, cool, and beautiful, adding to the mysterious proceedings.

The story of the show is very eye-catching. Every episode has driven me crazy. Awesome! The concept is amazing and the actors are also great. Commendable.

This web series had a decent plot but was stretched about two episodes. Good acting by all the casts . The first few episodes keeps you very much interested then the creator lost his plot somewhere between.

The series is based on myth and truth inspired by bbc series cheat

The series is yet another product from applause group which has given good line of series..director Rohan has directed very well and kept accurate balance of truth and myth..this short series is nicely conducted in beautiful locations of Darjeeling with good acting from huma and the new comer AVANTIKA who played marvellously her debut character..the psychodrama drama created was really edgy on seats..the art created like deep Hindi and English words from Shakespeare was of high quality

The flaw in the series was it gets little slow in some episodes and the story gets loop on a single subject
