A tribute to rich Punjabi Music of all kind - Sufi, classical, filmi and rap but lacks the fineness of Bandish Bandit. As I always say, it's the director only who can sail or sink the ship, and this is where the first 6 episodes take the back seat. A revenge drama in the backdrop of Punjabi Music Industry and a son's quest for truth. What a premise, and the lead is none other than Tabbar fame Paramveer Singh Cheema. It is loosely inspired from the murder of famous Punjabi singer Amar Singh Chamkila.
Acting wise Cheema carries all the episodes well but the spark is missing. Two leading ladies Isha Talwar and Akasa Singh have ample share of screen appearance and did well. Manoj Pahwa has acted superbly. But the series couldn't have that CHAMAK because of too many unrelated sub- plots and technical lapses like out of focus shots and inappropriate dubbing. These thin areas are noticed only when they are below par.
But you can still watch it for the excellent Punjabi Music , particularly at Peer ki Mazar in sixth episode. 5-6 episodes would come in next few months. Let's hope they would be more gripping and relevant.
