Make a list of India’s finest thrillers; the other two films from the franchise should be up there, as Mukherji’s third one from the universe is coming on the OTT platform soon.
So, what’s the buzz around?
The thriller universe, or call it a Cop-verse, always focuses on solving a mystery that usually surrounds a serial killer. Besides some of the most interesting storylines, the universe is also focusing on building characters such as Abhijit Pakrashi and Probir Roy Chowdhury.
After the success of 2011’s Baishe Srabon, Dwitiyo Purush came in 2020, which ended on a very interesting tone as Srijit Mukherji wanted to do a flashback in the universe as the story of Dawshom Awbotaar takes place decades before the events of Baishe Srabon.
Also, if you loved Asur, at least the first season of it, you will definitely be in love with it, as the film starts with a similar tone—a killer who is taking inspirations from the myth.
The film also brings two of the most beloved worlds together, as Anirban Bhattacharya’s character from Vinci Da makes his presence known to the fans—a whistling moment indeed.
The cast is obviously a star-studded one, from Prosenjit Chatterjee and Anirban Bhattacharya to Jisshu Sengupta and Jaya Ahsan—a complete feast overall.
The iconic dialogues, the great songs, count Dawshom Awbotaar in as a perfect fan-pleasing film, and as it’s coming to the OTT space, Hoichoi, soon. So mark your calendars for 2nd February and do grab some popcorns.
