Aarya

A trend of raw crime-thrillers set within the most dismal towns of India has continued since a very long time now and have become tiring on the way with the identical template of barraging profanity and provocative sex and nudity. Aarya delivers a fresh addition with the thrill of most destructive crimes trickling from the suave high-class families.

The best thing about the theme of this drama is that rather than showing the feminine character mostly right and wrong, the protagonist is shown between wrong and less wrong. Seeing a lady at the guts of an Indian crime drama isn’t any but a treat to the eyes too. Sushmita Sen, Chandrachur Singh, Sikander Kher, Vikas Kumar, Manish Chaudhari, Alexx O’Neill, and Ankur Bhatia has given an impressive performance as a star cast.

Watching Aarya does evoke how well it charters the well-known phrase, ‘even in the best families’. From the surface, Aarya Sareen, a wonderful fit, still-stunning mother of three, seems to own everything: a loving husband, luxe life, no enigmas apart from to pick the outfit of the day from a sternly classy wardrobe.

Scrape a bit, though, and out spill several cans of wriggly worms, which keep us busy watching through the nine episodes of the web series, co-created by Ram Madhvani and Sandeep Modi. Yes, there’s smut and grime under all that glitter, which occurs within the best of families.
