Bestseller

While the series is good, I am also a bit surprised with Shruti Haasan's acting and she has come a long way - with improvements that is. After all she's the reason that drawn me into the show since I am a huge fan of her. Acting aside, the film has a rather good story and plot to it. Some say predictable, yes and no, and your prediction is most likely wrong until the end. You can't ignore this work with a cast like the legendary Mithun Chakraborty, and of course the INCREDIBLE Gauahar Khan. Yes, she was the star of the show! While I'm all rooting for Shruti but Gauahar caught my utmost attention with her incredible performance. She confidently captures every mood with her command and screen presence. Such raw natural talent that I have not seen in a long time, especially from Indian cinema. The woman is mesmerizing and she deserves an award, and then some.

Best Seller is an Average thriller where you can easily guess the end within fifty percent of its run time. Story is simple. An ambitious but less talented author used a true Story of a family in his books and which easily becomes a best seller. But the impact is such which almost ruins that family. Now the brother and sister duo of that family make a plan to get revenge against that author. Too much unfolding of suspence too early make the best seller highly predictive from the first episode itself. But still you can watch it upto last episode due to sound performance of all the casts. Perfomence of Arjan Bajwa as ambitious author Tahir Wajir is good. Gauahar Khan as Tahir's wife is fantastic. Bother Sister duo Satyajeet Dubey and Shruti Hassan as Parha Acharya and Meetu Mathur fulfill the needs of the script. But as a central character Shruti Hassan should be better because she got the ample scope with different shades in the Webseries. But ultimately Mithun Chakraborty as ACP Lokesh Pramanik steals the show. His style of acting , comic timing, emotions grip the Webseries particularly in the latter half. Though there is a reflection of Anil Kapoor and Samira Reddy's role of race in Mithun and Sonali Kulkarni's role in this web series. Slow starter Best Seller gets the momentum when Mithun enters the series in the third episode. But still it is strictly average with predictive end. The series highly justified one of the dialogue of that series which indicates end is fixed before the starting of a book.

Its an ok crime, thriller, drama but it lacked the thrill. It turns into a more of a cat and mouse chase once Mithun Chakraborthy makes his entry.

Its been a while since I have seen him in a strong main role.

You work out the mystery in the early episodes and then you just watch to see how they unravel it.

The end climax again too predictable.

If you are looking for a true thriller mystery look elsewhere, if you are Mithun Chakraborthy's fans then don't give this a miss you will not necessarily disappointed with his character.

Seriously very old and repeated story.... Big faces with boring story. No new concept. Family revenge as a very common storyline. Sheuti Haasan didn't need to have done this.

I don't know why Shruthi is wearing contacts. There is no reason for her to do so. It's on the face and very noticeable at close ups. Her acting too is so bad. It's so evident of her innocent acting that isn't digestible. Even Satyajeet Dubey is very below average but as episodes go by, his acting feels OK as per his character. Everyone else are actually good in their acting especially Arjan Bajwa & Gauahar Khan. I am not a Gauahar fan but she has acted real good. I am a huge Mithun da fan but Mithun's character could have been played by anyone because it isn't anything special and is a dumb character because though the series tries to show that he is intelligent by doing something or understanding what others don't but that's not intelligence. That's bad writing of the character. Seriously Mithun da is wasted here.

The story is intriguing but when the reasons are revealed, the entire series falls flat. I understand who, why and what but the casting, the acting & the missing soul of the series made this a waste of my time.
