The Whistleblower

Sameer Lodaya

Sony liv have pledged to show all scams of india and this time it was vyapam scam of Madhya Pradesh

The story is about malfunctions in doctors, police admissions and how Ritwik becomes the whistle blower..the direction was not up to script as what we had seen in scam 1992 a lot could be shown..the series goes on a good pace but the middle episodes were stuck and made the series slow and dragged..Ritwik with kishan played their roles accurately..the series has been given good dark effect with all the other elements like youthfulness background scores love triangles etc

The climax was rushed to conclude thus did not give that ending punch and some segments were kept unfinished probably for a another season to follow

Good title to watch.

Not too engaging, but some good performances. Ritwik Bhowmik is good, Ravi Kishan is entertaining too. Good series but too streched, could have been finished in 5-6 episodes.

Series made on real Vyapam scam that got unearthed in 2013 which led to 2000+ arrests, 100+ custodial deaths and many unnatural deaths to hide big names and this scam believed to have run systematically from 1990 to 2013 n yet case on with CBI. Very systematically executed series with detailed intricacies of scam. If you want to understand how our entire systems are corrupt with numerous loopholes, watch this.

My ratings 9/10!

This show is definitely a must watch for those who want to know what exactly a "Whistleblower" is and how the Vyapam scam happened in Madhya Pradesh.

The series is undoubtedly quite interesting thanks to an interesting topic and an interesting and medium to fast paced screenplay. Next good thing is the performance. Ritwik Bhowmik and Ravi Kishan are the highlights of this show. Others too have done a fair job. A good BGM also helps elevate the interest of this show.

However, this series is not perfect as it is filled with numerous flaws.

1. Tends to unnecessarily drag towards the end.

2. The drag is further helped by the presence of an unnecessary love angle.

3. Witnesses get killed and we only see a glimpse of it. A full sequence showing how they get killed would have been better.

4. Not the best in detailing as compared to Scam 1992.

5. A somewhat weak 2nd half of the series

6. Last but not the least, weird half hearted narration in the background with very ordinary dialogues. Also, quite some episodes cut off to the next at abrupt points that are not highs (I mean to say episodes should end at points that leave viewers desperate for the next one).

Overall, an easily bingeworthy series thanks to an interesting plot and screenplay but get ready to come across some easily visible flaws.

In the lines of a big hit on Sony Liv- Scam, whistleblower draws audience attention towards how a huge scam in education department took place. Well researched story, pacy music, catchy dialogues, decent direction has given an edge to this show. Must watch for all.
