A near perfect crime thriller. Exposes the filth that goes for politics, police force, and media in our country. Direction is beyond compare. Every single character is made to give of their best, in dialogue delivery, body language, and their expressions. Jaideep Ahlawat lives the part. And Ishwak Singh matches him frame to frame. That Abhishek Banerjee could convey so much evil with just his eys, is remarkable. He could well be our next Irrfan Khan. Niharika Dutt comes through as extremely talented. Felt sorry for Gul Panag thoguh, for with her kind of talent, she deserved a more meaty role. Except for the unbelievably stupid scene in the mela (last episode), the story line, direction and action are flawless. A riveting serial. I feel I have just returned home, exhausted, after being right there with all the characters. Pity that unlike Sacred Games, the producers decided not to cater for second season!
