Madhavan, Amit Sadh, Hrishikesh Joshi, Sapna Pabbi, Atharva Vishwakarma and Neena Kulkarni.[4] [5] The sequel series starring Abhishek Bachchan is called and debuted on July 10, 2020.[6] [7]
Two desperate and driven men must engage in the ultimate cat and mouse game to save the one they love. A dying kid and endless killings. What might one do for the one they love.[8]
A follow-up titled starring Amit Sadh, Abhishek Bachchan and Nithya Menen premiered on Amazon Prime Video on July 10, 2020.[10]
Writing in Hindustan Times, Rohan Naahar states, "Madhavan and Amazon have created the single weirdest show on TV right now, like an adaptation of one of Keigo Higashino’s least popular novels directed by an Anurag Kashyap minion."[11]
Writing in Scroll.in, Vikram Johri wrote, "Viewers may have trouble accepting Madhavan as a cold-blooded killer – his soft features do not help – but to the actor’s credit, he is able to walk the contrast between tender and merciless with admirable finesse."[12]
Shivangi Jalan, a critic from The Indian Express wrote, "The first three episodes become a particularly slow watch. Even the scenes where Sadh and Madhavan appear together fail to carry the kind of weight a thriller is supposed to."[13]
