The web series has revived the horrific time of the Jungle Raj and virtually recreated the same socio-political and cultural environment of the late 1990s and early 2000s. It has, without any malice or political correctness, presented the ugly side of politics and how often politicians become impregnable shields for criminals. The book has the inherent limitation that its highs, lows, and emotional junctures are dependent on the connect and visualisation of the reader. While the web series does not allow for that because all of the actors have meticulously imbibed their characters and painted a crystal clear picture, there is no room for ambiguity. Pintu Mahto is living a normal lifestyle in Bihar along with his family. He makes income from his political career. His estimated net worth is around INR 2-3 Crores (approx.). I really request indian filmakers and storytellers to please visit bihar and show the world the stories from bihar.

In one line if I have to describe than I must say...Please read this book and feel the Bihari tashan ... Acclaimed Filmmaker Neeraj Pandey Makes Netflix Debut with Gripping Cop Drama 'Khakee: The Bihar Chapter' ". About Netflix. Overall, the web series is a full-fledged entertainer and a must-watch to understand Bihar, as the state is much more than what is often captured in movies and television shows. It is not the state of Chandan Mahtos, Mohammad Shahabuddins, and other gangsters; rather, it is the Karma Bhoomi of Amit Lodha and others him who wants to reclaim the lost glory of Bihar – the once cradle of Indian civilisation. Support TFI: It was also interesting to see how policing actually works (or at least some parts of it) and what are the challenges that a cop faces in their everyday life. Also, Mr Lodha is very honest in admitting the fears that go through a policeman's mind and how risky things are for them and their families. It isn't just a tale of bravado or machismo. It humanises a cop and shows how they have fears, doubts and shortcomings but when the going gets tough how they put their duty first and overcome all of this.But, not many know that before Neeraj Pandey, actor Irrfan had expressed interest in making this film. “Irrfan, too, met me over a dinner in Jaisalmer, when he came to shoot for a film. On being asked by his wife, I narrated 1-2 incidents from my Bihar days, and the next day the actor called me to say that he couldn’t sleep all night because he kept thinking about what I had told him, and asked me to send him the script so that he could make a film on it. He even sent me a contract over mail, but somehow the talks never materialised,” says Lodha, who had stopped over in Delhi on his way to Hyderabad. “I’m going to meet (Bahubali actor) Rana Daggubati; he sent me a message saying he read the book on a flight, and I believe he wants to make a Telugu version of this film,” Lodha adds.

Couple of sore points - showing the female telecom company manager frequently was incongruous and also felt somewhat gratuitous. Her character felt like forcibly inserted in the script just to provide eye-candy. She was made to wear low-waist saree and shown repeatedly; which was unnecessary. Also the way that the crafty Chandan Mahto fell into Amit Lodha's trap in the end felt too easy. Another plot-hole (and a major one at that) is how the cops managed to record Chawanprash's wife professing her love to Chandan? Without making Chawanprash listen to that recording, it would have been impossible to convince him to testify against Chandan. Maybe there's a flaw but while watching, it engage you in that manner that you'll ignore minors flaws. But then there are a few directors like Neeraj Pandey who have the capability and talent to even surpass and better the original script and make a legacy for the movie or series. Apparently, with the official adaptation of “Bihar Diaries,” the director has demonstrated that with conviction, the series can enhance the power of the book and connect it directly with the hearts of the people. Khakee The Bihar Chapter Lead Cast Review – Source: Netflix Netflix + Neeraj Pandey: Will it be the new formula for success? Money, muscle and media became the tools of individual political leaders initially. With the passage of time, the political system was gradually overtaken by these three elements. In the naked pursuit of power, political parties and leader readily accepted these elements as crime and criminals ensured electoral victory for them and their candidates.The OTT giant Netflix has been notorious for blatantly pushing its own agenda rather than focusing on its premium job, which is to offer quality content and ENTERTAIN its viewers. But, the platform has finally found the right man to put an end to its miseries and clean its image as a wokeism-inflicted platform.
