Mandala Murders starts strong with a gripping premise and eerie atmosphere, but stumbles toward a weak ending. Surveen Chawla shines with her screen presence and compelling performance, easily outshining Vaani Kapoor, whose backstory feel unnecessary and her acting is dull, although her combat scenes are decent. While the final twist adds a spark, the story fails to explore key elements — especially the making of Yast and the connections between victims and the past shown. The series had potential but misses the mark with underdeveloped arcs and unanswered questions.
