Agree to Disagree?

Watched first 3 episodes of #TheFamilyMan on @PrimeVideoIN. It seems to suggest that Islamic Extremism & Terrorism is a reaction to 2002 Riots, Gau Rakshaks, Mob Lynching. Sad to see @BajpayeeManoj as part of this convoluted propaganda. Let's see what's in store in other episodes

Praises For The Cast:

The casting is soo APT! The child actors are so good! The kid paying Atharva is a born actor. The guy who played Kareem also did a very convincing job!#TheFamilyMan

Strong Opinion...?

There were no islamic terrorism before 2002 riots. Indian army killing innocent kashmiris .

Mob lynching is so common and hindus are only doing this.

1) Showed terrorist as victims and innocent but didn't showed brutality of terrorist, didn't showed how cold-bloodedly they execute the terrorist attacks on innocent people. pic.twitter.com/NPuVqxGOIg

Run-of-the-Mill Storyline:

Meh🙁#TheFamilyMan adds nothing new to the genre. It's rehash of everything that we've already seen in spy thriller movies.

Watch for acting and good background score; skip for everything else.#review @PrimeVideoIN

And apart from that, the other factors that the web-series has thrown light on are issues like mob lynching, gau rakshaks, the radicalisation of Islamic youth, the on-going Kashmir situation and in a slightly foresighted manner, even the Hindi language issue, which set this series a little apart from other entertainers with similar Indo-Pak plots.
