O Sultão de Delhi

When you watch this series, you're hooked. It starts with Partition and promises to be a tale of grit and survival. For most parts, till the penultimate episode, it succeeds.

In the last episode, it implodes.

It's one thing to have a character or story twist to shock the viewers. It's another thing to bring a twist that doesn't appear to have any rhyme or reason. When the ending shows the characters appearing in a manner completely different to what they were supposed to do and when there's no build up to that, one ends up feeling disappointed. That time has been completely wasted.

That is what happens in this series. And by the way, the Sultan of Delhi isn't seen to be bossing Delhi at all. Nobody in contemporary Delhi even seems to know that they have a Sultan and this is what he's like.

Weird.

Had the ending been logical, this would have been a. Great series instead of what it turned out to be.

The 3 stars are a net result of stars for the previous episodes less the stars taken away for the last episode.
