Review- This is kind of mini-series running time of approximate of 2 hour, the entire shooting done during lockdown. Really wonderful screenplay, story and concept. You would be surprised that this kind of series can be made during lockdown.

 

While Nikhil Bhat has defied the odds and have created a tightly edited mystery thriller, is currently streaming on VootSelect. The backdrop of the premise is the covid situation in the country where Sahil (Arjun Mathur) goes missing and mysteries unravel.

 

Suspense of this series is breath taking and it shows during lockdown how people struggles to reach to their near and dear.

 

The show has stellar actors and each have done a brilliant work. Shweta Tripathi is the gem of the show. She is brilliant, aware and has given a praise worthy perfomance. Sanjeev Kapoor is amazing and Shriya Pilgaonkar top notch. Indraneil and Dibyendu have short yet important roles, wish to see more of them in next season. Yes, the show ends in a cliffhanger hinting a new season.

 

 

Overall, The Gone Game is a crisp show with just 4 episodes divided into 27 minutes of pure suspense, mystery and engaging twists.

 

Pros-

> Great performance by the casts, especially Shweta Tripathi and Supriya Pilgaonkar.

> Brilliant Screenplay and Direction

> Engaging Suspense.
