Featured review
Back to the roots comedic detective show
Not sure about the cultural implications, if any. But for an outsider the series was interesting and cosy detective series - like. Seen it a while ago, so details may be less clear. An indian detective, as the title says, goes back to his father and gets in the middle of some events that need investigating, with leads that take him to a powerful businessman, if I remember correctly. The main character has to adjust to being targeted by corrupt villains, and to the street ways, which are different from what he knows about doing his job. He is naive here and there, due to the rough environment. The father is intriguing and funny, the love interest left me waiting for the second season, yet to come to this date. The lead actor comes from standup and has an attractive, particular style. A series to try if you like lighter, atmospheric detective shows. And comedy.
