    Direction has A LOT of room for improvement

    I just finished watching this series and I have to say, Kay Kay Menon's performance really carried the whole show. Despite the poor direction, I managed to get through it because of KKM. The episodes being under 40 minutes was definitely a plus (only because the direction was so poor, or else he is a delight). If they decide to make a second season, I really hope they choose a more experienced director. It was disappointing to see such a talented actor held back by lackluster direction, but Kay Kay Menon's performance was absolutely brilliant as always. If you're a fan of his, you won't be disappointed.

    Great Drama

    Good film Smooth Narative and No unnecessary Drama or scenes. Screenplay, dialogues and story line was very apt and to the point without much melodrama or overhyping any character.

    The director has potential. Very well acted by all actors , especially As always Menon. His personality as Don was superb.

    Though much improvement in needed with production and Hindi film waala Feel to the whole reels. It was like a new director is debuting in 2001-2002 that was the film feeling while watching.. character actors need better as they were more like Producers or Directors friends then Actors.

    Awaiting part Two, hope soon.

    The story line and the way it is its just too good but the director is bad direction of the movie and dialogues Sucks !!! literally

    Murshid is a film that had the potential to be a masterpiece, thanks to its gripping storyline and the intensity of its narrative. The film weaves a tale that is both profound and engaging, taking the audience on an emotional journey that is both relatable and thought-provoking. However, despite this strong foundation, Murshid ultimately falls short due to a series of missteps in its execution, particularly in terms of direction and dialogue.

    The storyline of Murshid is undeniably its strongest asset. The plot is intricate and well-crafted, with layers that slowly unravel as the movie progresses. It is the kind of story that demands your full attention, as each scene builds upon the last to create a complex and engaging narrative. The themes explored in Murshid are deep and resonant, touching on issues of identity, loyalty, and the human condition. The story manages to strike a balance between being both universal and deeply personal, making it relatable to a wide audience while still maintaining a sense of intimacy.

    However, the film's potential is severely undermined by its direction. The director seems to have a vision that is unclear and inconsistent, which results in a film that feels disjointed and uneven. There are moments where the pacing is off, with scenes dragging on unnecessarily or cutting away too quickly, leaving the audience feeling unsatisfied. The visual style of the film is also lacking, with certain scenes feeling flat and uninspired. It is clear that the director struggled to bring the story to life in a way that does justice to the material.

    The dialogue in Murshid is another significant weakness. Good dialogue should be natural and engaging, serving to enhance the story and develop the characters. Unfortunately, the dialogue in Murshid often feels forced and unnatural. There are moments where the characters' conversations are stilted, lacking the flow and rhythm that good dialogue should have. This not only detracts from the overall experience but also makes it difficult to fully connect with the characters and their struggles. The clunky dialogue disrupts the film's emotional impact, making it harder for the audience to become fully immersed in the story.

    Despite these issues, Murshid is redeemed by the extraordinary performances of its lead actors, Kay Kay Menon and Zakir Hussain. Both actors deliver performances that are nothing short of remarkable, bringing depth and nuance to their characters that elevate the entire film. Kay Kay Menon, in particular, is a standout, delivering a performance that is both powerful and subtle. He has an incredible ability to convey complex emotions with just a glance or a slight change in expression, making his character feel real and relatable. Zakir Hussain is equally impressive, bringing a quiet intensity to his role that perfectly complements Menon's more expressive performance.

    The chemistry between Menon and Hussain is palpable, and their scenes together are some of the most compelling in the film. They manage to bring a sense of authenticity to their characters that is missing from the rest of the film, making it easy to get lost in their performances. It is clear that both actors put a great deal of thought and effort into their roles, and their hard work pays off in a big way.

    In conclusion, Murshid is a film that had the potential to be great, but ultimately falls short due to poor direction and weak dialogue. The story is compelling, and the performances by Kay Kay Menon and Zakir Hussain are exceptional, but these strengths are not enough to fully overcome the film's shortcomings. Despite its flaws, Murshid is worth watching for the performances alone, and for the story that lies at its core. It is a film that will leave you thinking, even if it doesn't quite deliver on its full potential.

    If I were to rate Murshid solely based on the performances of Kay Kay Menon and Zakir Hussain, it would easily earn 10 stars. However, as a complete film, it is a mixed bag-one that leaves you wondering what could have been with a stronger hand at the helm.

    Murshid Kay Kay Menon Shines

    The New Web Series Murshid proves once again that Kay Kay Menon can play any role with Uttar Perfectionml. He is no doubt one of the brilliant Actors of Bollywood today. Menon can make a dull theme attractive and worthy to watch.

    The plot of the Film is not new. There is nothing new in this Web Series that repeats the theme of rivalry among gangsters to dominate the underworld of Mumbai. The Bollywood has experimented the theme repeatedly. The Web Series no doubt tries to depict the underworld Gangster-Police-Politician cocktail in a different way. The projection of an underworld having humanistic approach is also not new taking into consideration the Films made so far. However, in some points the Web Series tries to prove reality of Mumbai and the inherent crime and mafia rule r convincingly. The Coriography and site Selection for some scenes to shoot exposes personal life of those involved in the Crime World of Mumbai. But the Web Series by no means a Crime Thriller and the element of Suspense is missing.

    Kay Kay Menon takes forward the entire action in this Web Series. The character Murshid has been projected as a Gangsters with great Accountability for the society. Kay Kay Menon has made the only difference in in this Web Series. This is not a negative character. But Menon has performed in an excellent manner. However, portrayal of Robinhood is nothing new in Indian cinema. But the performances of Menon gives elevation to the Web Series. Menon has been simply brilliant in whatever role he has played during the last few years. Both his dialogue delivery, facial expression and gesture have been excellent during this Web Series.

    But Kay Kay Menon Shines and outshines others For the Menon-fans. Menon has really proved . To watch Menon playing a brilliant role, one may watch and enjoy.

    Murshid: Kay Kay Menon's Masterclass in Emotion and Grit

    The web series Murshid proves once again how a brilliant actor like Kay Kay Menon can carry an entire story on his shoulders. The plot revolves around a gangster who starts from the ground up, eventually becoming the most infamous gangster around. But the real twist comes when his elder son dies in a tragic accident, and he decides to leave everything behind.

    Yet, as always, destiny has its own plans. His comeback is driven by pure emotion, as he returns to the life he left behind, this time for his second and only surviving son.

    You'll love Kay Kay Menon's performance and the clever, calculated mind of Murshid. The character's emotional depth and smart moves will keep you hooked. 7.5 stars from my side!
