It seems the writer completely lost the way with this one. The attempted twist ending is ludicrous. In fact, I could guess it half way into the last episode but I told myself that the writer would surely have done better than that. But he did not.
In the last 15 minutes, the Chief Minister of a state in India got sedated on the operation table with a drug that cannot show up in autopsy. Then he got declared as dead when he was not, by a huge team of doctors. Then his body was exchanged with that of a random person and he was transported out the hospital. And then he was taken to a house where a whole bone marrow transplant procedure was supposed to take place.
Nobody in CM's family asked for the dead body. The chief minister died in a normal surgery procedure and there was no inquiry. There were no fans, followers, party men gathered to see his dead body. A simple morgue incharge took his body from the hospital through the back exit. As simple as that.
The whole story is filled with loopholes. The kid who is held hostage has a phone but he doesn't use it to call the police. Instead he video chats with his girlfriends. The principal of a school and the owner of a standalone duplex bungalow with swimming pool doesnt have money to pay his EMI. Random characters and side stories, having no relation to the main narrrative are thrown in for no reason. A senior doctor having an affair with a young nurse in the hospital, the kid hacking exam papers for her girlfriend, the daughter's pregnancy and his army boyfriend, - all useless side stories with no real contribution.
The Indian audience deserves much more intelligent thrillers than this one.
