I was quite apprehensive starting this show since I have zero knowledge of share market, but to my surprise I really enjoyed watching it.
Entering the show, we know what Harshad is going to do and what his end will be but still it kept me at edge of my seat. It was all about 'How'. How did he pull off such a big scam and how did the agencies unravel his wrongdoings.
It was all explained in great details.. and it definitely piqued interest of a novice like me in stock market/money markets. It does not take audience for granted or consider them as dumb heads. There is no spoon feeding and complicated concepts like PSU bonds, security deposits, bank reciepts etc everything is handled well. Explained wherever necessary but not over simplified as well.
And even though the show is about Harshad Mehta(Pratik Gandhi), there are many episodes where he is hardly present.. like the investigation episodes.. The show gives everyone an equal opportunity to shine. Pratik was brillant but so was Shreya as Sucheta Dalal.. she has great screen presence. Also liked Anant Mahadevan as RBI Governor, Harshad's brother Ashwin, his wife, all SBI employees, Rajat Kapoor as CBI officer.. every single character was good. Very well done casting.
But the major plus point for me was no nudity, no explicit scenes or gali galoch just for the sake of it.. It hardly had MC-BC gali at 2-3 places but that was justified and didnt look forced. This is what we need.. Strong series with good story telling, but all we get nowadays is dark genre series like Sacred games, Mirzapur, Paatal lok etc. Enough of those already.. there are other genres to be explored as well and not everyone is a fan or gore. Scam is definitely quality content.. Ironically the show is about scam but this is the cleanest series I have watched in a while.
