Sacred Games got the hype from the Indian audience to be something original and India's answer to Narcos. But the facts remain that it is badly adapted, lot of scene ideas lifted from other shows and movies, lot of characters poorly done. Saif, Nawaz and Jitendra Joshi do commendable acting. Others are not to the point. Radhika Apte plays the same character in all movies, don't know why, even if you see her old movie called Sant Tukaram where she leads with Jitendra Joshi, she's acted the same. The series lacks a lot of pace,and is not that gripping. Also, the book is quite old and lot of ideas have already been done by now, so nothing new and great in this series. The main plot of the story starts in the beginning, and then is no where mentioned till the first season ends.
