Positive Review
Prime Video has presented a new series. Dev Tomar’s journey has been covered in this. Many social issues have been discussed in it. In this, elements like murder, politics, love, crime and blackmail have been combined.
Priyanshu Painyuli has played the character of Dev Tomar. He is seen leading the show. He has been given maximum screen space. His acting performance is good but his character could have been a little more interesting.
Kubbra Sait portrayed the character of Pallavi Raj well. Chandan Roy and Chandan Roy Sanyal have played the roles of vikas and kairav. Sanyal has done excellent work in negative roles. Manu Rishi Chadha (Corrupt cop), Shruthy Menon (Dev’s ex love) and the entire supporting cast did their job well.
The episodes after the 5th episode may seem a bit interesting and engaging. Many suspense and twists have been added to it.
Negative Review
This type of story has been seen in many films and series before. Twist & turn also looks similar. Its execution may seem very slow and dull. Screenplay and narration may seem slow. For example, in one scene, Dev’s smoking scene has been stretched to the maximum. You may feel very boring after watching such scenes. That kind of scenes don’t contribute to the story.
A lot of time has been consumed in the development and build up of the character. Abusive words are used without any need. The length could have been reduced by trimming many unnecessary scenes. It may take more than 7 hours to watch this series completely. The avg length of the episode is 54 min. There are not that many shocking and surprising moments.
Its story may seem flat and predictable in many parts. It becomes difficult to build interest in the first few episodes. There was no shocking element in its climax and the ending may seem ridiculous. The character’s backstory is not that engaging. Its hype is very less. Perhaps more effort could have been put into its marketing or promotion.
Technical Review
Navdeep Singh’s work as a director is decent. He has directed hit films like NH10. There were more expectations from him for some new concept and he could have made it more interesting. Its writers are Devika Bhagat and Navdeep Singh. He selected a good topic but execution and presentation are lacking.
Cinematography by Vishal Vittal is okay. Music by Shivansh Jindal is decent. Production value is good. Editing by Nayan Bhadra is not that impressive as the scene could have been trimmed and shortened.
Shehar Lakhot Webseries: Conclusion
This is a crime drama and thriller series in which the journey of a boy is shown. It may take up to 6 – 7 hours to watch its total 8 episodes. In this, abusive words have been used excessively at many places. The audience had very high expectations from this show but it could not satisfy the feelings of its audience. This can be a good choice to watch during weekends.
