Afsos on Amazon Prime is wonderful watch for people who don't mind black comedy. The web series deals with black comedy of such humongous proportions, that one will either love or hate it. If people are in good mood before watching, I am sure afsos will keep them entertained throughout the 8 episodes.
Gulshan Devaiah as Nakul a depressed young man on a suicidal streak steals the show with a brilliant performance. The rest of the support cast do their job decently well enough. The character development & story is very good to keep us entertained throughout. Karima Upadhyay played by Heeba Shah as a female hit man was a well written character.
Cinematography in 4K was simply outstanding with lots of close ups shot very well. Editing could have been a little better considering the plot. Shooting locations in Uttarakhand was simply superb. Direction, Music and production design was definitely of acceptable standards.
Had a more popular person had played the lead instead of Gulshan devaiah, I am sure the web series would have been 10 times more popular than it is now. Overall Afsos ticks most of the boxes and would have had a wider reach and ticked more boxes only if more budget was allocated to casting and certain tweaks to the storyline to suit the younger generation. A very good web series to watch with friends.
