Dark and Misty Murder Mystery!!. Review on kohrra

So Kohrra is a dark unsettling murder mystery set in Punjab and available on Netflix. The series is about the murder of a young NRI guy and how the police try to solve the case and connect many disturbing dots as well. Nowadays, in this ocean of web series on various platforms, we have been observing 2 points. First is that many makers dare to touch bold uncomfortable topics to show what's happening in society, the other is that in many series you feel there is unnecessary showing of certain issues and explicit usage of violence and foul language. Sudip Sharma's Kohrra is a well-made dark murder mystery but I felt uncomfortable at parts and felt certain aspects could have been avoided. The series takes time to build due to its pace and also I felt has an overdose of issues. Having said that, there is no doubt that it is very well shot in Punjab, shows the modern issues of the state and is technically superb. What makes the otherwise heavy series appreciative is the great performances by Barun Sobti, Rachel Shelley(after Lagaan), Varun Badola, and Arjuna Bhalla(after decades of comedy series-Flop Show). The makers and team have managed to stay true to the title Kohrra and the murder mystery thickens and gets mistier after every episode till it's finally solved. The show however belongs to Suvinder Vicky who gives an amazing controlled performance and is the highlight of the show. A class act in a well-made grim intense murder mystery!
