A very haunting and authentic portrayal of the actual case in Bihar, but I'm sure this is happening everywhere in the country. Bhumi Padnekar's acting is really good and so is her supporting cast. I really like that her character is unapologetic in pursuing the case as an honest journalist and at the same time unapologetic in living her life without the shackles of patriarchy. For once we also get to see how a husband can make his wife's life so much easier by just supporting her instead of becoming another hurdle in her life. Please note, there are some gruesome acts of violence against women as the subject matter but it is portrayed very respectfully and it is not used for shock value. A lot of the criminal acts are mentioned in dialogue but nothing is shown on camera. The best is saved for the last, instead of giving the audience a neat ending it turns the camera on the audience and asks us, have we become so apathetic that we have also become part of the "bhakshaks". Kudos to Red Chillies for giving us this film, hope they continue to use their resources to give us more quality content. Only one place where it could have been slightly better is the storytelling which could have more tightly woven for a higher impact.

After watching this, I can clearly say Ranbir Kapoor has some kind of mental illness and it will start showing as he grows even older just like his father. . As for the director, some Reddy, he is just a loser who thinks he will become manly through such films. But in reality he seems to have not developed mentally beyond 12 years. He will become irrelevant quite soon and will lose all his money because he has zero talent.

This is one of the stupidest Indian web series EVER. I don't understand how this has been running for 3 seasons. Sushmita Sen cannot act, she is terrible to watch. Her dialogue delivery is so robotic and she is so focused on her looks that even during fight scenes her hair n makeup looks untouched. The dialogues are laughable. The story is so bland, even high school students can write better essays. I only feel bad for a few supporting actors who are veterans in the industry but have to work with such horrible cast and crew. Spare yourself of this terrible series. Watch ANYTHING else.

Another series from Netflix which only exploits it's viewers emotion with traumatic visuals without any substance or good storytelling. If you have nothing new to say, if you do not have guts to point out the real culprits of the crime (not a tragedy, it is a crime) then why make a series at all? Just to take money from an emotional audience. The 2 stars are only for the actors who did a great job in this soulless series.

Weak direction, zero characterisation and illogical story. We should stop giving so much credit to Sujoy Ghosh, expecting another Kahaani. His direction has very limited vision. Kareena has never been able to act, it is the same here. Vijay Verma has nothing to work with and he is just repeating his acting from previous roles. The only one worth watching is Jaideep Alhawat. While his character is very cliché, but he manages to still make an impact. Netflix India continues to give their money to these useless Bollywood directors and writers and the result is always same.

This show does not even come near the original US series The Good Wife. It is yet another lame Bollywood remake. While the supporting actors are still trying their best to give a good performance the main cast is horrible. Kajol is a huge misfit for this role, this character requires subtle acting and emotion while Kajol is only used to loud cliché big production movie acting. Also it shows, since Ajay Devgan is the producer, the show is only focused on Kajol and that makes the bad writing even more lopsided. No character is allowed to grow. All in all, it's the same old Bollywood nonsense. The original Good Wife series is available on most Indian streaming services, please watch that instead.
