Plot

Sarah Ouseph was a head nurse. She got severely injured and was admitted to the hospital. She requested the doctor to bring a police and an advocate. She handed over two letters: one to the police and the other to the advocate, addressing the letter to the magistrate. What was written in the letter? Why did it affect many people? The rest of the series deals with this.

Star Performance

Neena Gupta did her job well in the limited screen time. Rahman performed well, despite his character missed the depth. Rishiraj is decent with the performance but not with the language. The same goes for Ashwin. Manu is okay with his role. But his accent feels exaggerated. Sanju is the perfect fit for the role, with different shades.

Analysis

The story started on an interesting note and it had the potential to become an incredible thriller. Yet, due to a few miscast, it lost its way. The stars should’ve been given dialogue coaching for a better output. If the artists’ pronunciation is not right, the makers should’ve opted for a better dubbing artist, like the way they did for Neena. The writing was okay but not gripping in many sequences. The backstories of some characters have no connection with the plot, and we don’t know why they were added. Other than these, the series has a decent music score. The visuals are good, and the editing is okay.

What’s There?

• The performances are decent

What’s Not There?

• A few miscast
• The writing should’ve been better

Verdict

The series is watchable once for the performances. If the casting and dialogue delivery had been better, it would’ve been a better watch!
