The Mumbai underworld has been a favourite of Indian directors. It has all the elements - ruthless, hungry for power gangsters, corrupt police, a cop with a vision, chaotic chases, etc. Add to that, highly explicit language and boobs, you've got yourself a hit. What makes this show different is that the cop (Sartaj Singh played by Saif Ali Khan) gets caught more than the criminals, as opposed to Indian action flicks where one guy can take down a whole gang without getting hurt. I've seen too many doomsday plots to find it innovative, but this one manages to keep you hooked with it's rapid pace and it's detailed, intertwined plotting. It brings up questions about the rise of Ganesh Gaitonde, greedy politicians, Sartaj's father, and slowly unravels the answers. Leaving some unanswered for Season 2.
