When you start a web show with no expectations, your life might be flipped completely upside down. As though you’ve joined up for a marathon, you’re suddenly binge-watching 12 hours of content in under 10 hours.
These days, the power of a gripping web series is pretty much limitless. Here are some shows to watch right now that are worth binge-watching.
These aren’t the shows that your friends, the Internet, and the rest of the world have persuaded you to watch; instead, these web shows have a powerful impact.
1. GRAHAN
Grahan is a love story set against the backdrop of the 1984 riots. Two-time frames have been displayed fluidly by the director.
The premise of the show is inspired by Satya Vyas’ famous novel Chaurasi, and it navigates between two separate universes that are three decades apart yet are linked by a secret.
This show will keep you engrossed with just the right mixture of drama and love. Ranjan Chandel directs this crime drama, which stars Pawan Malhotra, Zoya Hussain, Anshuman Pushkar, and Wamiqa Gabbi in important roles.
2. CITY OF DREAMS Season 2
The plot of City of Dreams centers around a political family, where politics and power become the source of family strife. The first season of the series has a 7.7/10 IMDb rating.
The second season is now out on Disney + Hotstar, and it is powerful and engaging. The star cast is quite promising with Priya Bapat, Eijaz Khan, and Siddharth Chandekar.
3. NOVEMBER STORY
A Tamil criminal thriller starring Tamannaah Bhatia as Anuradha, an ethical hacker whose life is turned upside down when her father, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, wakes up at a crime scene with no knowledge of what happened before.
November Story is a gripping murder mystery about a daughter who sets out to defend her father’s innocence.
4. UNDEKHI
Men with firearms, a gunshot, a murder, and a lot of mayhem. We thought to ourselves as we watched the teaser for SonyLIV’s original web series Undekhi, “No, not another dark thriller with the same old cat-and-mouse narrative.”
We came to a different conclusion after seeing the 10-episode series. Undekhi is a well-written and skillfully scripted story that will keep you interested from beginning to end.
5. MAHARANI
This political drama is partially based on Rabri Devi’s tenure as the state’s chief minister after Lalu Prasad Yadav announced her as his successor in Bihar in the 1990s.
This show, which stars Huma Qureshi as the wife of Bihar’s chief minister, is a must-see. Sohum Shah, Amit Sial, Kani Kusruti, and Inaamulhaq star in the show, which was created by Subhash Kapoor.
6. SUNFLOWER
Two suspects and a dead body. There’s the obvious one who appears to be guilty right away, and there’s the mystery one who has hidden motivations.
Is there a connection between the two of them and the murder? Or are they simply the typical suspects, with more to the story than meets the eye?
The show provided us with such edgy personalities, but aside from their unique arcs, most of the characters and their subsequent plots do not add anything significant to the overall plot, leaving the series with no real purpose. From the start, the eight-part series piqued our interest.
7. Mumbai Diaries
With the world-famous story of the 26/11 attacks, Mumbai Diaries was able to highlight one of the most important and under-appreciated forces at the time, the doctors, and how everything affected their life as well.
Mumbai Diaries is one of the most honest and perfectly made shows based on real life, with a dramatic tale, outstanding cinematography, and a brilliant cast.
8. Tabbar
The simple yet complex narrative of a retired cop who goes to great lengths to protect his family from the consequences of a tragic tragedy.
The lies continue to multiply at the same rate that the show’s appeal grows. The tensely dark thriller will keep you engrossed till the end, thanks to an ensemble cast that includes Supriya Pathak, Pawan Malhotra, Gagan Arora, and others.
9. Candy
An investigation into the murder of a student in Rudrakand leads to the discovery of a trail of horrible atrocities. The plot revolves around a drug cartel and a killing spree in a town rife with legends about demons.
Candy, starring Richa Chadha and Ronit Roy, is a dark, riveting thriller with plenty of twists and turns.
10. Chalo Koi Baat Nahi
Chal Koi Baat Nahi is a sketch comedy show created by Vinay Pathak and Ranvir Shorey. It is a sketch comedy show that becomes as funny as it can.
The show comprises well-known comedians like Karan Wahi, Suresh Menon, Atul Khatri, and others to provide you with the laugh you seek.
11. Gullak season 2
This program is an unappreciated gem, with an amazing star cast and a funny premise. This sitcom, which revolves around a regular middle-class family, is nothing but pure entertainment.
The second season of the drama, like the first, is focused on the Mishra family and their problems. Shreyansh Pandey’s feel-good concert features Jameel Khan, Geetanjali Kulkarni, Vaibhav Raj Gupta, and Harsh Maya.
12. Potluck
Potluck is a straightforward narrative of a father attempting to reunite his dispersed family and bridge the gap between nuclear households.
As a result, the Shastri’s get together weekly for a potluck and try to bridge generation divides, falling apart due to distance, but with their love for the family at their center.
