The series began with an electrifying punch, serving up a thrilling mix of suspense, comedy, and stellar performances. The initial episodes had all the right ingredients to hook you in. However, somewhere along the way, it lost its sharp edge. The middle episodes seemed unnecessarily stretched, and the final couple of installments, well, they were a bit of a drag. The cast's performances were commendable, with Kay Kay Menon, as always, delivering a brilliant watch. Shahid Kapoor managed to bring the star aura to the show, and nothing more, while his partner-in-crime was really good!

While it had its ups and downs, 'Farzi' still manages to deal a good hand of entertainment.

As usual Radhika Apte as the protagonist is brilliant. She was able to keep me from signing off early. But, couldn't manage to hang on till the end. Those who could, they are indeed some brave souls!

The film started very well though. And Sumeet Vyas did pretty well to create a good suspense.

Disappointed to see that the plot couldn't manage to hold it for long as the balance between the comedy and suspense got distorted. I think Over-the-top comedy and silly actions spoiled the show for me!

I was really hoping to see something good from Zee5 for a change, but ... My bad luck I guess 😕

5/10 from me. Solely for Radhika.

Even while watching this classic in 2022, a good 82 years after the movie was released, Sir Hitchcock could get me engrossed into the groove all the way till end!

With powerful portrayals, plot twists, subtle Hitchcockian nuances, and the almighty background score, it was a great watch even though you're psychologically biased by the towering presence of anything Hitchcock!

What a great performance by Joan Fontaine and Judith Anderson, who made the invisible protagonist Rebecca being felt inside the Mandalay. George Sanders in a short role was excellent. However, I found Sir Laurence's performance a bit subdued.
