The Great Indian Murder review: Tigmanshu offers great fun, brilliant dialogues

One of the most delightful stories woven into Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Disney+ Hotstar series The Great Indian Murder. The mild-mannered evil son of a politician was shot at a party. He has a few haters for good reason. At least two of the suspects, Munna and Eketi, have excellent backstories, and actors Shashank Arora and Mani PR play them very well.

Based on Vikas Swarup’s 2008 novel Six Suspects, the series has multiple subplots that trace the past of those believed to have killed Vicky Rai. Jatin Goswami’s evil performance as Vicky is one of the highlights of the series.

In the novel, Vicky’s father, Jagannath Rai, is the home minister of Uttar Pradesh. Jagannath’s political plans, as well as Vicky’s murder, played a role in Uttar Pradesh politics. Dhulia changes Uttar Pradesh to Chhattisgarh with co-authors Vijay Maurya and Puneet Sharma. In one scene, the chief minister of Chhattisgarh, who belongs to the same party as Jagannath, mentions that their party only holds power in four states.

This deviation from the source novel does not change or add to anything about the story. But at least, it will not be accused of influencing the upcoming Vidhan Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh.

Follow Munna and Eketi’s Big Indian Murder at its best. Surrounding them is a maelstrom of corruption: ethics, morals, politics, finance, the list goes on.

Jagannath (Ashutosh Rana) loses sleep trying to keep his son Vicky out of jail. Meanwhile, Vicky is a somewhat successful businessman that Jagannath needs to keep in close contact with. Once Vicky was acquitted of rape and murder, he threw a lavish party.

Attendees included Andaman Eketi, who had been travelling across India in search of a tribal deity that had been stolen and brought to India. Retired bureaucrat Manoj Kumar (Raghubir Yadav) often thinks he is Mahatma Gandhi and acts like him. Yadav is a liar just like Manoj, and the writers are smart not to stick to the reasons for his mental disorder as written in the novel. There is Bollywood star Shabnam Saxena (Paoli Dam). Ashok Rajput (Sharib Hashmi) from Rajasthan is associated with Eketi. And Ritu (Rucha Inamdar), who understandably hates her step-brother Vicky’s guts.

All of these characters have motives to kill Vicky. Tracking down Vicky’s sordid past and present is naughty reporter Arun Deshmukh (Amey Wagh). Among the series’ many incredible inventions, Arun has managed to keep a low profile, despite being a journalist who runs two popular blogs in 2021: one video, the other text. On a date, Allen told the woman he was a software engineer and she followed him on social media, never finding out the truth. It’s amazing.

I don’t mind this, by the way, because while many elements of The Great Indian Murder and its original novel are incredible, the series retains the page-turning quality of a Swarup book.

Jon Snow’s Kit Harington explains why he is unable to watch House of the Dragon.

Game of Thrones actor Kit Harington, who famously portrayed Jon Snow, acknowledges that he finds it difficult to watch the spin-off series House of the Dragon.

“I simply cannot watch it.” I believe that I’ve just been there for too long. And I hope that everything is going well for them; I wish them the best. However, I doubt I’ll ever watch that program, and I doubt I’ll watch Game of Thrones once more for a few years,” Kit remarked.

Kit is not the only actor from Game of Thrones dealing with this problem. The show’s Daenerys Targaryen actress, Emilia Clarke, said to Variety last year, “I just can’t do it.” It’s so strange, so strange, so weird. It resembles someone asking, “Would you like to attend this school reunion even though it’s not your year?” Would you like to revisit that school reunion? That’s the general feeling. I’m staying away from it.

Season 4 of House of the Dragon will conclude.
HBO revealed that the fourth season of House of the Dragon, its Game of Thrones prequel series, will conclude. During a press conference to discuss the Season 2 finale, showrunner and co-creator Ryan Condal disclosed the information.

Condal revealed that the third season of the program is presently in the writing stage and is scheduled to premiere in early 2025. Condal said that he is still in talks with HBO over the number of episodes for Season 3, but he anticipates that the show will continue to go at the same pace as the eight episodes of the second season.

Kit Harington, renowned for his portrayal of Jon Snow in Game of Thrones, has openly discussed his reluctance to watch its prequel, House of the Dragon. In an interview with The Associated Press, Harington explained, “I just can’t watch it. I think for me it’s just I’ve spent too long there.” He added, “I wish them all the best, and I hope, I hear it’s wonderful and going really well. But I don’t think I’ll ever watch that show, and I don’t think I’ll watch Game of Thrones again for a few years.”

Harington’s sentiment is shared by his co-star, Emilia Clarke, who portrayed Daenerys Targaryen. She remarked, “I just can’t do it. It’s so weird, it’s so weird, it’s so strange. It’s kind of like someone saying, ‘Do you want to go to this school reunion that’s not your year? You want to go back to that school reunion?’ That’s kind of how it feels. I’m avoiding it.”

Both actors have expressed a desire to distance themselves from the Game of Thrones universe for the time being, focusing instead on new projects and personal growth.
