Vijay Raaz Rescues an Uneven Police Procedural
Raj Acharya’s eight-episode series, adapted from Jerry Pinto’s novel, works best as a generational character study of masculinity
Raj Acharya’s “Murder in Mahim” – the eight-episode police procedural streaming on JioCinema, suffers from an adaptation problem, the most unfortunate flaw currently ailing Indian long-format storytelling. The story, about the violent murders of lower-class sex workers, is adapted from Jerry Pinto’s eponymous novel and the show is helmed by Vijay Raaz and Ashutosh Rana, two formidable acting powerhouses capable of elevating any script.
