Though it’s the gripping murder-mystery that hooks viewers, it’s Suri’s intelligent and keenly observed social commentary Santosh shines the brightest.
Suri weaves a fantastic script that truly does lull us into the copaganda inherent to a police officer being in the lead. Goswami is great in the role because we always see her compassion- even when the darkness too many others trade in takes hold.
