A show like 24 has never been aired in India till date . It is one of a kind and surely people will need some time getting adjusted to it . The whole idea of telling a story in a 24 hour real time period is quite new to the Indian audience . The style of filming and pacing is what hooks us to watch it . Though the show is based on the English TV series 24 which lasted for 8 years , it would not be unfair to compare the two . However being a big fan of the original one for almost 8 years i must really admit that the first episode of "our" version hooked me right into it and one can find plenty of similarities to the original such as the opening sequence , the split screens , the sound of the clock ticking etc. Coming to the performances everyone did a pretty good job and their dialog was also pretty decent and realistic . The portrayal of Anil Kapoor as Jaysingh Rathore -a troubled,frustrated,patriotic family man and a soldier was well done ,so there's that .Thus the first episode was quite satisfying , but will the rest of the episodes to follow have equally satisfying material ? only time will tell ......
