Halfway through Freedom to Midnight. I can say Sony Liv invest in quality over quantity. It looks stunning. Casting is so good. Characters feels like the real life version of themselves. Also it's amazing that they have included Hindi only audio for those who doesn't understand English.

They left midway. I don't have problem with this. I hope they cover assassination of Mahatma, five year plan, wars with Pakistan, China etc. in future series. Coming to the series Applause have perfected the art of making series with vintage looks. They have even topped Rocket Boys.

It is one thing to have a ready made story and another to develop one but yes historical events are easy to work on.By the way Freedom at midnight remains neutral because it is written from British POV.Anything on china war would be damning for Nehru and Congress will fight tooth and nail to ensure that it never gets released.
 
Normally I try avoiding any Hotstar original series. I was watching Shiddat last night which itself was a bad movie. Only good thing about this movie was Radhika Madan. Forget about Sunny Kaushal. Mohit Rana was cringey here too. It's a T Series movie. Yet, not even songs were good. I wish I hadn't wasted my time bere. Then there was this ad about this upcoming series plot of which looked really interesting. It is Thukra Ke Mera Pyar which released today. Build up to the main plot is so slow. It took 5 out of 7 episodes to reach to the main plot. They are planning on releasing more episodes every Friday as they wasted more than 2 and a half hour to go beyond the trailer.

While watching Aus-Ind test, the advertisement was popping up after every break. Looked interesting. So went for it, which is eventually the first web series I watched since 2022. Though all the critics panned it, it was a decent one to me, waiting for next.
 
Watched the 3rd season of From. Overall, the 1st season was very interesting, 2nd season was a little bit slow, 3rd season was useless except first 3 and last 2 episodes and some new elements introduced in the storyline. Hope they will atleast show a little progress in every episode in the next season.

They are introducing time travel from next season, I guess.
