Negative Reviews:

• It's sad to see that Bollywood and Hollywood are taming India and Indian army's image. They call it , Kashmir Situation" in the series. They also call Indian army's presence in Kashmir as, "tourists in uniform" and a lot more. It's sad that Indian youth is being feeded with such wrong depiction of current "situation". Did not expect this from Raj & DK, WAS a fan. God help India.
• Beside Manjo Bajpayee's acting there is nothing in this anti national/ terrorist supporter webseries. There are many dialogues which absolutely feels like written by somone who has utter sympathy on terriost activisties. The whole reason of this webseries is to malign Indian security forces and support radical Islamic terrorist groups. If you are not terror supporter you will hate this webseries mark my words.
• Most of the reviews seems to be paid ones. So I am here with a genuine one. The worst series I have ever seen. Plot was good. But the director messed it totally. Also the story was totally lost at the end. The family man is a failure both at personal and professional end. The Indian secret services are portrayed terribly. Wasted 10 hours of my life..
• Seems like it runs with an agenda..more like a Propaganda series. One sided narrative, selective half truths, conveniently hidden facts to suit a narrative. Looses the plot after episode three.. Manoj Vajpaye was the only reason that I started to watch.. Couldn't go beyond episode 4.. Not worth wasting your time. Lacks creativity & full of lies.

Positive Reviews:

• This series was as close to reality as it could get. The real agents do have family to take care of. The real agents do not win ultimately. The villain does not have Nuclear plans. The villains make strategies to hurt. They are neither from this country or the other country. Their only aim is to wreak havoc with minimum fuss. I loved the way this series depicted how realistic it could be, how feasible was the plan of the villain(s). The way Tiwari (Manoj Bajpayee) struggled to maintain a balance in his personal and professional life was touching. He had a family which was bordering functionally dysfunctional. Both the kids were affable. A special Kudos to the entire cast, who did justice to their roles, and never went over-board (over-acting). We also learned (or realized) that in real life heroes don't get thanked when they do their job well. However, if they fail even once, then entire world is ready to extract pound of flesh. Highly Recommended to watch!
• It's not just the web series.. its pure form of art.manoj bajpee did brilliant job and not just him every body did awesome job. what a cracker of the series man. just brilliant it just can't be more glorified and the most important thing is the writing and direction of the film was superbly done..fantastic
• All the episodes are highly thrilling and narrated beautifully by the director. The plot is very strong and it's well acted out. I like that the story doesn't sit in Mumbai instead it spreads cross country. The main character played by Manoj Bajpayee is smart, brave yet very funny at times. The story tries to balance between him as a family man and an Intelligence Officer. Looking forward to the second season!
• Jack Ryan, which also happens to be an Amazon original used to be my favourite action/drama series until I saw this masterpiece. This series is very realistic and an exciting take on spy based series where the spy drives some old messed up hatchback and not an Aston Martin. The series also shows how the underpaid job of a spy affects Sri and his family. 10/10 would recommend. Doesn't matter which country you're from.
• What do i say!! This is engaging, entertainig and thrilling. Binge watched it and just now finished with it. Manoj Bajpayee is the one to watch out for in this series. He is the perfect casting for the role of Shrikant.. Every other actor has done his/ her role perfectly. Go, watch it guys. You are going to love it.
