About
If you like realistic, politics-meets-crime dramas with moral pressure and escalating danger, this should work, especially if you enjoyed Company or Yuva; Not for you if you want light viewing or low-violence stories.
Pros: gritty political crime story; strong lead performances; tense first half | Cons: uneven pacing later; songs feel distracting; heavy violence and intimidation
