Seldom have I seen such wooden acting.
The actors Armaan Ralhaan comes across as a petulant child who'll start crying for not being given a candy. Aadil Khan... he of the fancy haircut whips out his daughter's photo at the drop of a hat.
(Has the production team even seen a commando in his life? All of them, repeat all of them have buzzcuts.)
Manish Chaudhury as the CO of Hawks and that wonderful actor Makarand Deshpande desperately try to give the series some life. But after 3-4 episodes, even they give up.
The story is so cliched that it feels like someone wrote it his sleep. Same old India Vs Pakistan. By now, I thought our story-tellers would have graduated to China or something.
The one good thing though, were the aircraft shots. Unlike most other Bollywood production, the slickness in aerial photography shone through. I suspect, there was a generous dose of VFX. But still.
In fact, the aircrafts were the best actors of them all.
Hotstar, if this your answer to Top Gun, I can only feel pity for you.
