    What A Well Crafted Storyline.

    Mukhbir is very nice.

    The main lead actor 'Durrani' is a raw talent, maybe people will not like his acting but personally I loved it.

    The whole work is appreciable.

    BGM is not that good.

    The Details of work is good and hard work is easily seen in the web series ,It's a Raw Work.

    I loved the Song 'Chhaliya/Behrupiya' and Humse to wo Behtar hai. I can hear it on loop.

    Prakash Raj and all Characters are good.

    I love Adil Hussain always.

    Barkha Bisht completes the story with her presence.

    I must say Dilip Shankar Sir you rocked whenever you come on screen and your character is just another level sir, intense. Wow it is.

    I watched it because of some names in it - Sir Shivam Nair, Prakash Raj, Adil Hussain made me watch this.

    This project must go on.

    Must watch

    Zain has done a remarkable job. Superb performance by everyone. The story is full of twists and turns but really enjoyable. Better than raazi movie. Must watch web series. The story makes you more connected with your country. It is one of the best depictions of the difficult life of spies. Barkha and zoya have also done a good job. They had very convincing characters. They inculcated the character very well. The villains also played a good role. Quite a good performance. Long time that i have seen such a performance by almost a new actor zain.. He should be considered further for movies and web series.

    Tasteful and engaging, this series is one of the better spy thrillers of all time

    Zain Khan Durrani is such a breath of fresh air. After a long time I have seen an actor command such presence, not just with looks but also with his performance. He was on par with Prakash Raj, Harsh Chhaya and Adil Hussain, all veteran and seasoned actors. The screenplay was very well written and the story unfolded seemlessly. I am glad that in this era of webseries, the real good actors are getting their due appriciation. Ashim Gulati got his recognition in Taj and now Zain has gotten a great platform. Zee5 should keep up the hunt for good scripts, it gets viewers's respect. Now that OTT platforms like Netflix, Prime and Hotstar have become trashbins, its lovely to see an underrated OTT platform like Zee5 are emerging with great concepts and good scripts. BTW, if you have seen Raazi, trust me, after watching Mukhbir, Raazi will seem mediocre.

    Could have been better.

    Lal Bahadur Shastri ji was really a good prime minister. The series was shown very well but what they can change is in spy story of India and Pakistan not to add so many emotions & guilt on the spy.

    Second last episode has too much drama. But the last episode in which Lal Bahadur Shastri ji was very good. Ending was also good.

    The lead actor's dialogue delivery was not that good. Every other character was apt and undoubtedly gave their best performance.

    'Mukhbir' -- absolutely an unmissable series.

    'Mukhbir, the story of a spy' is a draught of fresh air in the otherwise dark period of otherworldly drama of smarter-than-thou characters playing out sleezy, outrageously expletive-ridden and often unrealistic roles. Vaibhav Modi and Arshad Sayyed have done an excellent job in writing the screenplay. Doing a period drama entails special challenges, however this spy-thriller series sails smoothly. And enthralls too. Prakash Raj, Harsh Chhaya, Adil Hussain have excelled in living their characters. Zain Khan adds an uncanny charm to the show with his charismatic personality, mischievous smile, euphonious voice and a dialogue delivery that has this 'deliberately casual' attitude making him stand out. Needless to say, he has lived his character to the hilt. Music and lyrics gel well with the show's period. Nuances of espionage, its perils and the grave dangers, crises and uncertainties/vulnerabilities it entails are all meticulously woven in the show. Absolutely, an unmissable series.
