Relatable (2018)

Losing it (2018)

Relatable: Ellen DeGeneres comes back to standup after 15 years, and she’s as funny as ever. Wonderfully using small nuances to shed light on everyday funny moments, to larger and deeper debates, she keeps it comic, relevant and as the title says, relatable.

Losing it: Vir Das makes some bold jokes on religion and makes quite a point with comedy. He speaks about his memories, most of them personal, putting a comic twist on them and adding some philosophy.

Sacred Games (2018)

Based on Vikram Chandra’s novel, Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane capture gritty Mumbai, the gang culture and political backdrop of the time with brilliant story telling.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui narrates and acts the character of Ganesh Gaitonde with unerring ease, hypnotising audiences with his life story, and leaving us wanting more at the end of the season.

Saif Ali Khan has a role that he can finally sink his teeth into, intense, on edge with a past that is yet to be revealed.

Such a show is an ensemble effort, every actor and location adding to its grim reality. Not one character was average, everyone acted their parts authentically.

Fast paced, full of eye opening moments and well edited back stories, there is a rationale for everything and everyone. Can’t wait for season 2!

4/5
