Reception

Rohan Nahaar writing for Hindustan Times called the series Inept and illogical, Amazon’s strangest show lets Abhishek Bachchan, Amit Sadh down[7]. Shubhra Gupta writing for Indian Express said Somewhere in there, in all the roiling and toiling, are the bones of a crackerjack thriller. But this loosely written season 2, bouncing in and out of a kidnapping drama, and the creation and search of a psychotic killer, gets mired in its own muddles, and ends up being plain preposterous [8]. Saibal Chatterjee writing for NDTV called the series Abhishek Bachchan's Show Is Low On Oxygen giving 1.5 of 5[9].
