    Excellent Story; Remarkable Cinematography; Rubbish Storytelling!

    Amazing story with some story that needs to be heard! Human at their most brutal sight and without even a beat from their heart. Rarest of the Rarest!

    However very bad way of narrating the story! If I had not got recommendations from relevant people K might have stopped watching it the story was breaking every single time something came to surface. First two episodes were nothing but unnecessarily vague way of projecting the main hook of the storyline.

    But i will have to commend the cinematography and the footage collection. Very much gave the whole thing a life and did not only had to walk on the story tellers abilities.

    Nonetheless, it is a Must Watch, even to put a tribute to the subject!

    Plain boring!!!!

    This series' is of four episodes . Each of half hour long. This could have been easily a two episodes series because there was nothing in the story. No suspense no twist nothing.

    A guy murders his wife because he will inherit the property after she is dead and he gets arrested after three year. Nothing more to say in the story.

    You see crime happening due to property or some dispute . This series is same nothing special. You cry out loud and wait and wait and wait for twist or suspense but there is nothing for you. At the end i would suggest you to watch "the burari case" on Netflix or the Indian predator.

    Thrill

    True story picturised well but old footages ,as per that time,are not upto today's standards. Eventhen worth watching.

    However the *MMM* seems to have been falsely implicated as there are no eyewitness nor the evidence picturised evidences are as per today's time.

    Moreover he was already behind the bars for more than 30 years now so needs review or mercy.

    One can watch and enlighten oneself as far as human psyche is concerned.

    Well tried as brought the real characters and their verbatim presentation .

    Once again worth watching and analysing. Common man ,super woman , different beliefs n societies ...

    Unmissable

    Fascinating and terrifying story superbly told. A must watch.

    With the popularity of true crime documentary series over the last few years this is a unique story told in a way that keeps the viewer hooked throughout. Excellent and well directed interviews with the key actors in the story delicately presented.

    This series comes highly recommended to those in India and globally due to the dramatic story and unsettling details that will leave the viewer shocked.

    The editing, directing and production of the feature stands out and has nods to the directors past work which will please existing fans and attract many new ones.

    Unengaging, unnecessary and useless details

    Credit goes to the trailer maker who convinced me to watch this with his trailer design but the final product is a disappointment.

    First of all, the parallelization of the stories doesn't blend in as it seems they had no clue how to tell the story.

    Same thing repeated again and again. The talkers talking about the same thing doesn't giving any new details. Nothing new for the next episodes. After the first 15 minutes of the opening episode the documentary lost it's engagement.

    Unnecessary back stories, to relate with the characters they have tried to establish back stories, which was filled with unnecessary details that failed to maintain the connection with the characters.

    In short, if you want to know about the case you can do some digging on youtube no need to waste your time watching this.
