Okay-ish !

Not much to put as a review ..this is one of those stories that either you like cause it tickled your good mood or you dropped cause you were just feeling moody and irritated that day .

A pre-independence themed revenge plot with its own fluff. The best part playful dynamics between the ML’s sister-in-law, who thinks he’s her husband, the ML, who pretends to be her husband in front of the FL he secretly likes, and the FL, who’s here to kill him thinking he murdered her father, keep the drama quirky.

The antihero was clearly the writer’s favourite—starting neutral, then turning into a ruthless villain, suddenly finding patriotism thanks to the ML,'s speech , and finally dying like he is some sort of victim. Three U-turns later, he remains unsummarizable.

Direction, styling, and cast were impressive for a short-format drama. Music was decent and suited the tone.

The ending might feel problematic to some, but in freedom-struggle themed dramas, sacrifice often replaces the expected happy ending.
