I may be wrong , but Mx Player is perceived as a platform for casual viewing. It was only by chance that I switched on to this series featuring an unknown co-directors Prem Mistry and Abhishek Yadav (take a bow) and a cast of relatively unknown talent.

Directed by Jai Basantu Singh

Raaz ki baat bataaon…Vijay Raaz seems to have stepped into the role of the rigid ultra-conservative patriarch in a small town that Ashutosh Rana would ideally play. Raaz being Raaz manages to make the role interesting although it seems to belong to someone else.
