ABHAY SEASON 2 REVIEW : A GRIPPING CRIME THRILLER WITH TWISTED CHARACTERS
STORY: No-nonsense and upright police officer Abhay Pratap Singh (Kunal Kemmu) is back, but this time he is up against some really twisted murderers. Can he outwit them before they strike again?
REVIEW: Season 2 of ‘Abhay’ opens with a rather chilling scene where a seemingly harmless looking middle-aged man Harsh (Chunky Panday) is about to commit a heinous crime. But even more chilling than the crime itself is the reason. The first episode sets the pace for a gripping thriller right from the word go, as we are quickly led into the killer’s dark mind. Chunky Panday’s scheming tone and creepy expressions highlight his character’s abject depravity and perversion. He is equally convincing as the crafty small-town photocopy shop owner and as a ruthless serial killer with unresolved daddy issues. Director Ken Ghosh and his writers (Sudhanshu Sharma, Christabelle D'Souza, Samita Mukherjee and Priya Saggi) do not waste time in revealing the killer’s identity – a common theme in all three episodes released so far. However, this never takes away from the show’s relentlessly dark and gritty narrative that focuses on the anatomy of the killer’s mind just as much as their offence. Each episode features a new crime and criminals with some even spilling over to the subsequent episodes. This makes the screenplay quite busy and at times even unrealistic. For e.g. how can a string of disappearances of all the toppers in a small-town neighborhood go completely unnoticed for two years? There are more such instances that make the show look quite fictional despite claiming to be based on true stories.
‘Abhay 2’ borrows generously and unabashedly from classic Hollywood thrillers like ‘Saw’, ‘Silence of the Lambs’ and even has a character fashioned around ‘Joker’, no less. All the same, there are quite a few clichés too. Like the idealistic young journalist Sonam (Asha Negi), who is the only one covering every big case and the cop’s funny sidekick, who will goof around and crack jokes even when dead bodies are piling up.
But ‘Abhay 2’ scores big time with its fast paced developments and revelations with a couple of decent performances. Kunal Kemmu’s understated and restrained act in the title role is a definite winner. His upright demeanour and a perfectly chiseled body do justice to his blunt and witty character, who’s hot on the trail of his suspects. Nidhi Singh as the bright and young officer Khushboo shows promise. Ram Kapoor credited as ‘main villain’ makes a late entry, but manages to build enough intrigue around his complex character, who seems like a genius gone wrong. However, there’s room for more finesse while portraying such warped characters than just devilish grins and laughs. Bidita Bag comes across as the most titillating and perverse psycho killer, who finds orgasmic pleasures in inflicting pain.
There’s also enough blood and gore to justify the genre. The setting of north India’s interiors work quite well in adding to the intrigue value. Thankfully, the dialogues (Aparna Nadig and Alka Shukla) are quite non-dramatic with fewer gaalis that have of late become the laziest way of depicting small-town crimes.
What sets ‘Abhay 2’ apart is the fact that it remains quite ahead of the curve with its crisp writing and fast-paced execution that also makes it quite an engaging watch.
