Chakravyuh: An Inspector Virkar Crime Thriller

#sanjuzzreviews

This thriller web series based on Piyush Jha's novel " The AntiSocial Network" is all about cyber crimes, cryptocurrency, dark web, date rape, murders and a poor mumbai cop, inspector Virkar ( a confused and bewildered looking Pratik Babbar caught in the middle of this zhamela).

Hey... before you jump to the conclusion that the series is trash, I would like to tell you that the series is actually very fast paced and decently engaging even with its flaws and predictability.

Babbar has a fantastic physique, but too much attention is given to his body and to be honest he isnt a great actor. Kunal Khemu did a much better job in the Web Series Abhay.

With something or the other happening in every episode, the pace doesnt slacken one bit throughout the length of the series . Also, Short episodes of around 30 mins each make it a good binge watch option.

Among the cast, Ashish Vidhyarthi and the late Asif Basra are good in their respective roles, however the rest including Simran Kaur Mundi are not so great. Casting is one of the flaws in this series.

All in all, not too bad as a one time watch ...adios :-)
