What BollyAI Thinks
Director Sidharth Sengupta (Apharan) launched the series on Netflix on January 14, 2022. Season 1 runs eight episodes and follows Vikrant Singh Chauhan, a middle-class man forced into proximity with an obsessive politician's daughter while trying to protect his real relationship. High on Films concluded it was too repetitive to be good despite its trashy entertainment intentions; Ready Steady Cut called it a tasty story that stretches the imagination despite childish delivery. The 40 percent Rotten Tomatoes score (5 critics) suggests a limited and mixed critical take, while the 72 percent audience score and 7.0 IMDb rating indicate the show found its target viewer effectively.
