The Great Indian Murder

It's stretched too much. They only try to make money by keeping number of seasons! It could have been great but it becomes boating after a point.

Just a casual watch, nothing is great about this.

If youve got time on your hands you can watch this. Editing is not out of this world. Casting is very good. Raghuveer yadav is good. Richa chadda looks more than chubby. That CBI officer disappoints. Overall 6 out of 10. Seems they tried something keeping patal lok in mind.

When the series started it was not so engaging but slowly it started to entertain you with its suspence content. Various character started pouring in and there are of course many nail biting moments...but towards the end of episode 6 and also in the next 3 episodes things were messy...May be season 2 would compensate the loopholes of season 1. Season1 was little disappointing...but yes waiting for season 2.

Web series review : The Great Indian murder streaming on Disney+ Hotstar #sanjuzzreviews #TheGreatIndianMurder

Directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia and adapted from Vikas Swarup's novel "Six suspects", The Great Indian Murder is a misadventure of sorts.

A maniacal scion of a politician is murdered at a party hosted by him to celebrate his acquittal in a case case involving the rape and murder of 2 underage girls. The series identifies 6 suspects who might be the perpetrators of the crime.

Pros : Casting is bang on. Pratik Gandhi, Richa Chaddha, Ashutosh Rana,Paoli Dam, Ameya Wagh and Raghubir Yadav ( the best among the lot) have done a fabulous job. Well directed too .. doesn't look like a cheap web series.

Cons: The novel from which it has been adapted has a convoluted plot & too many lengthy sub plots involving the suspects which lead the viewers astray . I had read the novel way back in 2015 and did not find it great either. So, in a nutshell the novel from where the script has been derived from, is a big letdown. Also long episodes of around 50 mins each are tiresome as the series trudges to a lame climax.

Pls go ahead and watch it.... If you do not have any other good options, that is 🙂

2/5 from me for this one .. adios 🙂

The subplots running in each episodes are too shallow with Uncountable illogical situations .Dialogues & screenplay both are poor. Technical aspects are average. You hardly feel engaged Ashutosh rana is only saving grace. Rest cast is wasted.

Recent book adaptations : white tiger & now this one both are destroyed brutally. Books delve much deeper & are atmospheric.

Sadly series looks hollow.
