This is probably the best Indian web series I've seen, I haven't watched Sacred games so can't compare these two. Jaideep Ahlawat steals the show in Paatal lok, he's the heart & soul of this gritty crime thriller. This show gives a certain vibe we get to see in Anurag Kashyap's works mostly. It's unapologetic & hits you in the gut.
The plot is quite simple, it involves corrupt cops, gangsters & polititions. But the uniqueness lies in the storytelling & direction aspect. Paatal lok isn't flawless, it has some loop holes here & there. But overall it's a must watch crime thriller.
Neeraj Kabi is a revelation here, the rest of the supporting cast did a phenomenal job as well. We need more good contents like this on OTT platforms.
