Web Series Review: Adhura streaming on Prime Video
Adhura is a suspense,horror web series that speaks of strange incidents that happen in a prestigious boarding school ( Nilgiri Valley School) after the arrival of a new student, Vendant. At the same time, when the Batch of 2007 arrive at the school for their reunion, a few students face retribution for a terrible incident that happened 15 years ago!!
Even though the story isn't new, the eerie ambience, great acting by a relatively new star-cast , lots of jump scare moments, great editing and direction will definitely keep u engrossed all throughout.
The suspense element coupled with a heady dose of horror is something we rarely get to see. Last time I had seen a good Hindi horror series was Dahan- Rakhan Ka Rahasya ( on Disney Hotstar). Adhura rises much above Rakhan and makes u feel real chills without making things turn into a really outlandish comedy!!
The story moves back & forth between 2007 and present day to set the context for the eerie events that start happening !!
The emotional angle too is very well dealt with !
Ishwak Singh , Rasika Duggal and Shrenik Arora - the young kid who has played Vedant shine in their roles. Rahul Dev unfortunately is wasted in miniscule role!
Why to watch: Adhura is a brilliantly executed series that takes u on an exhilarating journey filled with a perfect mix of mystery & horror, holding u in rapt attention till the very end !!
Go for it !! Highly recommended!!
I'm going with 4 Stars out of 5 for this one .. adios 🙂!!
