The show Naxalbari features Rajeev Khandelwal, Tina Datta, Sreejita Dey, Satyadeep Mishra among others in pivotal roles.
By looking at the trailer, it seems like a highly dramatic series about one of the most sensitive issues of our times. The cast seems credible enough, especially Khandelwal and Mishra. However, everything gets drowned in a sea of noise, thanks to the background score. It is difficult to focus your attention on the emotions and the dialogues when one is constantly being distracted by unnecessary music.
The synopsis of Naxalbari reads, “Get ready for Naxalbari, a first-of-its-kind ZEE5 Original crime thriller series that explores Naxalism and its impact on the people fighting it. Starring Rajeev Khandelwal, Tina Datta, Sreejita Dey, and Satyadeep Mishra, the series revolves around an STF agent who is on a secret mission to uncover the truth.”
It will be streaming on 28th November on ZEE5
