Reception
[edit]Poorna Banerjee of The Times of India rated the web series 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "The lack of cohesiveness or believability also leaves one with plenty of loose ends that the director seems to ignores as long as his purpose is served."[4]
Manik Sharma of Firstpost wrote "The show’s biggest problem isn’t that it has a predictable done-to-death template, but the fact that it can’t even stay true to the Succession-esque powergrab at the heart of the show."[5]
Bhawana Bisht of SheThePeople wrote "Interestingly, the show is not just a revenge drama, it also serves as a love story connecting dots where Abhimanyu Roy pursues a girl (played by Madhurima Roy) consistently, and even molests her, making her eventually fall in love with him, but that angle doesn’t work much because of its drag and the fact that the audience is far beyond romanticising stalking on screen."[6]
Archi Sengupta of Leisurebyte rated 2 out of 5 stars and wrote "We sit there, episode after episode, getting a minute or two of the interesting stuff while watching silly things happen for hours on end. Especially in this Abhimanyu Roy storyline – we see him being an entitled molester, creep and stalker, all the while romantic music plays in the back."[7]
Sunidhi Prajapat of OTTplay rated 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "The Naxal angle, which appears to be an unnecessary approach by the makers to make it even more intense and suspenseful, This angle surely makes the show longer, which feels like a stretch after a while. However, the impressive performances of most of the actors balance out the show."[8]
